These countries export education since long and each one is a competitor for another one. The study defines the cost of education as the total cost that a student has to bear for obtaining a degree. Total cost includes annual tuition fee, living cost, and other costs such as insurance premium. The study collected data from official data sources of the respective countries. The study compared costs and found that cost of education is varied for a specific program from one country to another. It is also varied from one university to another within a country. However, the most costly education is in USA while the cheapest one is in New Zealand. The findings of this study might be useful for researchers, policy makers and educationists.
