recently, the two topics "the average monthly living expenses of college students is 1,282 yuan" and "tsinghua's cabbage and vermicelli soup costs 1 yuan a bowl" were both on the hot search list, and many netizens shared that "they were secretly helped" during their financially strapped student days.

i was shocked by the prices in the cafeteria!

some netizens recommended that the cabbage soup in tsinghua university cafeteria is delicious and tasty, and a large bowl costs only 1 yuan.

not only is tsinghua's cabbage soup cheap and delicious, a price list from xiamen university's cafeteria also made netizens say they were "shocked by the prices."

△xiamen university canteen price list shared by netizens online in 2023

there is also free rice, soup and mineral water in the xiamen university cafeteria.

at south-central university for nationalities, the cafeteria has not raised its prices for more than 20 years.

hot dry noodles are 1.3 yuan, and white steamed cake is 0.4 yuan.

a student who graduated 15 years ago left a message saying that a mouthful of hot dry noodles from his alma mater would make him miss it most.

at hangzhou normal university, the cafeteria has a "2 yuan rice bowl" window, where you can have unlimited refills of one meat and one vegetable dish. the meat dishes include meat, eggs and fish.

although the school has moved several times since 2005, this window has been preserved and the price has never changed...

the reason why these "heart-warming dishes" are so affordable is that local governments have maintained the stability of canteen prices through relevant policies and financial subsidies in order to protect the interests of students.

“i’ve also been secretly helped.”

in addition to the vegetable prices that have not changed for many years, some schools also "secretly" deposit money into students' meal cards through assessments, which can truly help needy students and protect children's self-esteem.

previously, needy students from yunnan agricultural university found that there was an extra 600 yuan in their meal cards. this was not "pie in the sky" but an invisible subsidy from the school.

nanjing university of science and technology has also been “secretly” recharging meal cards for poor students through big data screening for many years.

in addition to "secretly" transferring money into meal cards, some colleges and universities have also tried various "secret" methods to pay attention to students who may have financial difficulties.

many universities, such as jilin university and anhui normal university, also provide subsidies, job-hunting suits, winter clothes, etc. to needy students who are in special periods such as preparing for postgraduate entrance exams or job hunting.

tuition pressure?

remember to apply for funding!

currently, colleges and universities have started to open classes. if students have financial difficulties, they can apply for relevant funding programs within the colleges and universities.

before enrolling, students can apply for a credit-based student loan through the student aid management center of the local county-level education department.

if you have not raised all the tuition fees when you enroll, all universities and colleges have opened a "green channel" that allows you to defer payment of tuition and accommodation fees and register for admission first.

after admission, students can apply for national grants and other financial aid from the school. students with good academic performance and good conduct can apply for national scholarships, national inspirational scholarships, etc. according to regulations.

upon graduation, if you are employed in a grassroots unit, or enlist in the army to perform compulsory military service, or are recruited as a sergeant (formerly a non-commissioned officer), those who meet the requirements can enjoy tuition compensation and national student loan compensation policies.

want to apply for funding

you can also call these numbers first.

the ministry of education's hotline for college student aid is 010-66097980 and 010-66096590. this year's hotline will be open from 8:00 to 20:00 every day until september 15, and will accept all kinds of national aid policy consultations and complaints.

the provincial hotline mainly accepts inquiries related to local university funding measures, green channels, and credit-based student loans.

the hotline of colleges and universities affiliated to central departments mainly accepts inquiries related to national student loans, green channels, and on-campus scholarships on campus.
