Mikko questioned whether coming to study in Finland could be financially viable if it equals 100 months' net salary. He wrote that a middle-aged student living in Espoo from Sri Lanka had paid 12,000 euros for the opportunity to study in Finland without any grants. According to Mikko, the average monthly earnings in Sri Lanka were 125 euros, so he believed it would not be worthwhile for the student to return to their home country for work. Mikko compared this amount to the situation where he himself would pay 300,000 euros to study for a couple of years in the United States. He doubted that training to become sufficiently good at a job in a few years would make the investment worthwhile, especially if the money had been borrowed with interest. https://t.co/yttO6zqpcg #Opiskelu #Koulutus #Maahanmuutto (translated)
