About:Chinese Temporary Residence Permit

I have a L visa

Hi,
I'm a French student going to study at the CFAU in Beijing for a year. To do my one year student X type I needed an admission letter from my university in China that never arrived. Consequently the university told me to go in PRC with a L type. I'm now in PRC for a week, I've done health examination but I wonder how to apply for a residence permit with my L type. Is it possible ? Moreover I don't have the accomodation registration printout because it wasn't necessary with a L type. Is that a problem ?
My L type expires in 3 weeks will it be enough to get my residene permit ?
Eventually I'm currently in an Airbnb rent and the owner isn't available for the residency registration, how can I do ?
Thank you so much in advance for your help, I'm really panicking right now and need some answers.

Roxane, you cannot apply for the residence permit with a tourist L type.
If you can get relevant documents from the school after entering PRC, you can try to change the L type to student X1 type and then you can apply for the residence permit with the X1 type.
If you apply for the X1 type now, you can get the residence permit in time.
You can get the residency registration form at the exit and entry administration of the local public security bureau.
