The cost of living here is also much cheaper. In addition, we live in very beautiful and safe community. People are friendly to foreigners, the air and water are pure and clean, and we are surrounded by forests, lakes, and rivers. The ocean water is cold, but the climate is mild and you can have an unspoiled beach all to yourself. The dormitories provide you with a room and three meals a day on weekdays and two meals on Saturday and Sunday.
Prices are always subject to change.
For current pricing, check the HSU Housing Department's website. The dorms are right on campus and give the foreign student a chance to speak English and make friends with American students. You are free from the burden of shopping, cooking, and doing dishes. On the other hand, residence halls give you the usual problems of group living. Some of the dormitories may be less quiet than an apartment complex.
