Tuition fees are rising. Do you still choose to study in America?

The east. Com interviewed several international students who are going to study in the United States for this purpose. Ma Ran and Ji Xu will come to study in the United States in the next school year of 20 17. In the process of deciding to study abroad, they and their families have considered the issue of tuition fees.

Ma Ran will go to Columbia University to study architecture. He believes that American universities have high tuition fees, especially art majors, and few scholarships. 1 year tuition fee is 50,000 USD. However, Ma Ran still chose to study in the United States. He thinks that studying abroad can give him more opportunities. In Ma Ran's view, tuition is of course one of the factors in choosing the destination country and school, but it is more important to look at the relationship between school level and tuition, and tuition is not the decisive factor.

In the face of huge tuition expenses, he said that most of the expenses for studying abroad will be paid by parents, and tuition fees will be subsidized part-time in the future. "Studying in the United States will cause certain economic pressure on families, but it should not affect their living standards and quality, and they will also reduce their living expenses in proportion." Ma Ran said.

Ji Xu will go to the University of Michigan at ann arbor to study sports management.

Ji Xu originally applied to new york's Columbia University and new york University, but due to the high tuition and living expenses, he finally chose this public university in the Midwest of the United States.

Many college students have the same idea as Ji Xu. Studying abroad is to enhance one's competitiveness and strive for a better-paid job.
