Studying Abroad

Children is Sri Lanka get there school education for fre at goverment school. Through this thousands of rural children get opportunities to get a good education. After learning at schools for Thirteen years they sit for A/L's which deside if you go to a Sri Lankan university or not. This exam is very competitive due to the fact that the number of students selected for universities are limited. Because of this many children wont get the opportunity to get the free education given by Sri Lankan universities.

This is when the problem arises. The children who were not selected try to go abroad and study paying huge amounts of money. From their point of view this can be considered as correct. But nowadays even children who were selected to Sri Lankan universities tend to go abroad and continue their higher studies. This I don't think is not correct. Why? because. The universities in Sri Lanka are world class universities With all fascilites. I see no need for this catagory of children to go abroad and study. Why waste so much money when you can get the same education for free here in Sri Lanka.

These days the main universities like Colombo, Peradeniya and Katubedda put out Thousands of well educated and qualified people to the society. My view is if you are were not selected for a university its okay to go abroad and study but if you were setected i see no point in going abroad and wasting so much money which is useful to our contry. No need to go abroad when our own university system is up to world standard.
