What are the best and cheap countries to study abroad?
I think it will be Finland -- because the Scandinavian country has been recently in the news for the stunning success in the education system reform model -- Finland's success is especially intriguing because Finnish schools assign less homework and engage children in more creative play.
For a starter on Finland's school reform:
1) they have no standardized tests. The only exception is what's called the National Matriculation Exam, which everyone takes at the end of a voluntary upper-secondary school, roughly the equivalent of American high school.
2) teachers and administrators are given prestige, decent pay, and a lot of responsibility. A master's degree is required to enter the profession, and teacher training programs are among the most selective professional schools in the country.
Finland, of late has been attracting attention on global surveys of quality of life -- Newsweek ranked it number one last year -- and Finland's national education system has been receiving particular praise, because in recent years Finnish students have been turning in some of the highest test scores in the world.
Finland's schools owe their newfound fame primarily to one study: the PISA survey, conducted every three years by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The survey compares 15-year-olds in different countries in reading, math, and science. Finland has ranked at or near the top in all three competencies on every survey since 2000, neck and neck with superachievers such as South Korea and Singapore.
Only a small number of independent schools exist in Finland, and even they are all publicly financed. None is allowed to charge tuition fees. There are no private universities, either. This means that practically every person in Finland attends public school, whether for pre-K or a Ph.D.

Living in Eastern Europe (former Soviet bloc countries) tends to be cheaper than many other developed nations. People want to speak English with you and there are actually very old and historic universities.
