If you get homesick easily, you should not consider choosing a university
outside your hometown or which takes more than a day to travel by land
or water. However, if distance is not a problem for you, you might want to
consider studying abroad, especially at a university whose reputation is
better than the universities in your home country.

Last but not least, calculate your financial ability, which should cover
tuition fees and cost of living. Both vary across the country and different
universities, so do your homework by doing some research in order to find
out which one fits your bills. If you cannot afford to go to the university of
your choice, you can search for financial aid in the forms of student loans,
grant, or scholarship. Do remember that if you decide to obtain a loan, you
have to pay for it after you finish your study.
