I lived in Tianjin for a year and I never heard of that school. You might want to ask them something like what district in Tianjin they're located in. Some areas that are considered "Tianjin" are pretty far from the city centre.

Also, if it's a public school, 10.5k a month is probably not going to be offered. 4k a month is more likely.

We rode the the telecom wave until it went bust; now we think educating Chinese kids who can't get into any other college is the wave of the future

...and we have the financial backing of Malaysian palm oil magnates!

I recognize this building on the right hand side of this image here:

If that building is anywhere near where your college will be, it's in an industrial park near the northern edge of city center, near highways going to Beijing and Jixian. I never got up there that much, so I couldn't tell you about what kind of school is there or what it's reputation is.
