Although studying abroad can bring great benefits, I think the disadvantages for young people are greater. To begin with, many students who study abroad face great economic pressure. That means studying abroad is just not possible for everyone. Tuition fees and living expenses are much more expensive than at home and could end up costing most families an arm and a leg.
