The majority of respondents were positive about the value of overseas education and were able to make enough money to cover the cost of their overseas studies within five years. Some 30.3 percent recouped the cost in three to five years and 24.1 percent in just one to three years.

大多数受访者对海外教育的价值持积极态度，并能在五年内赚到足够的钱来承担海外留学的费用，约30.3%的人在三到五年内即可收回成本，24.1%的人仅一到三年就能收回成本。
