Leaving school and going on to higher education is an exciting thought. A university or college education has many attractions . A degree is still a must for many careers, and graduates tend to earn more than non-graduates. University life also gives you important experience as you leave home, mix with new people, learn to stand on your own two feet and broaden your horizons. There are plenty of universities to choose from in Ukraine. Look at them and consider more practical questions like these ones.

• Do you want to live away from home?

• Do you want to live on campus?

• Are there societies which interest you?

• What is the cost of living in different areas in Ukraine?

• How quickly can you get home for weekends and holidays?
