Decades ago, children in poor central areas were urged to excel in studies for a better life. Both parents and children believed high education was the only path to escape poverty, saving diligently for studies. University entry was seen as a chance for a new life, making students a source of pride. However, recent realizations show that higher education doesn't guarantee success or wealth. Some regret their university years, while others, like overseas guest workers, find lucrative opportunities and contribute to building better homes for their families.

Labor export has been and will continue to help change the face of poor areas in the central provinces and other regions. Ads from export companies seek individuals with language skills (IELTS or basic Japanese) to work abroad. After a year or two, they send money home, often used to build new houses. Villages now boast multi-story homes funded by overseas earnings. Many students choose to finish high school, work abroad, and return home to start businesses with substantial capital. Overseas work has become a lucrative path for financial growth and community development.

Many poor parents from some provinces accompanied their children - 11th and 12th graders – to labor export companies. These children carry a heavy burden on their shoulders – working to get money to pay the debts of hundreds of millions of VND their parents had borrowed to send them abroad.

If even excellent students also choose to go abroad to work after finishing high school instead of going to university, this would threaten the knowledge-based economy, especially in the context of the 4.0 era and the rapid change of science and technology. This also shows the uncertainties in the orientation for developing education and the country's welfare, labor, and employment policies.

1. Attending a college or university in the United States is very expensive. For families in the United States, paying for their children's education has become a significant expense. Many families begin saving money when their children are born, and some states offer incentive plans for savings programs.

2. As expensive as the tuition is, this hardly covers all the costs of providing an education. Buildings, equipment, and salary costs are increasingly costly, with advanced technology adding tremendous costs for laboratories and other specialized facilities. Universities and colleges constantly seek support from foundations, corporations, industry, and local, state, or federal government.

3. For students, college costs can be daunting. Some work during school to earn money for tuition, books, transportation, and housing. Colleges assist by offering on-campus or nearby jobs to help cover expenses. Community colleges accommodate working adults with flexible class schedules.

4. In addition to family funds and savings, there are two main college funding types: loans and grants. Loans are borrowed money that must be paid back with interest, although the interest rates for student loans are lower than for other types of loans. Grants, including scholarships, are gifts that do not require repayment, but eligibility often hinges on maintaining grades or showing financial need. Scholarships may be earned based on academics, athletics, or other achievements. Due to intricate application forms, identifying and accessing these funds can confuse families. Colleges and organizations offer offices to aid students in navigating funding resources. The financial burden of college often extends beyond tuition, influencing students to work part-time jobs or seek assistance from these various funding options. International students usually pay higher out-of-state tuition, and student jobs may offer lower wages.
