Recently, the senior three students in our school have had a discussion on if to go to a nearby university or not. Seventy percents of them prefer universities in their local city, believed it will be convenient for them and their parents to take care of each other. We can go back home much easily. However, the other students chose universities far away from home so that they can be more independence. They can also make a few of new friends and see more of the world. Personal, I favor an university outside our province, which can offer us more living and working experience in society.
