Disadvantages woul be:
1. if you are a family-oriented person then you might feel homesickness and therefore you cannot study well
2. studying abroad is costly. however if you're rich it's your advantage.
3. you might get lost if don't have enough background on the country where you'll be studyin.
4.you'll experience how to be alone and many more....
advantages would be:
1. better opportunities...
2. new friends...
3. it would be fun...
4. it would enhance some of your skills...
My last advice is that if your planning to study abroad then just try because you don't know there might be something in there that you'll love...just think positive anyway it's for your future...

Advantage - you learn to become independent and self-sufficient. Broader cultural education as well. Disadvantage - you get homesick, you're alone unless if you have relatives in the other country you can go visit on weekends. Holidays are even worse if you're away from the family. Overall - if you can survive the loneliness and make new friends - its more advantageous than not.

Well, I've just had such a dilemma, so I can tell you about my thoughts.
Pros: you can find materials unavailable in you country's libraries, improve on the language, meet a lot of new people, be free of your parents;PP
Cons: missing your friends, getting used to new rules, situations, being far away from your family.
And of course every student should consider if the university abroad is really better than those in his own country....

broader view
a good source of good stories to tell your friends =P

disadvantage>>
financial disadvantage, some countries living expenses might be higher than your home country
culture shock, no matter how similar the culture is to your country, a culture shock is a must-have
language shock/confusion, speaking in language which is your not mother tongue will generate confusion.

Disadvantage:- it is quite difficult to live without family & friends and specially without our love

You will be able to exposed to the outside world and you have to be very independant when you are studing aboard.
The main disadvantages is that racist may happened to you, you miss your family and your favourite local food. That's all I can think of
