Practice 〜つもりだ →〜つもりだ attaches to the dictionary form (留学するつもりです) to declare a personal plan. はず is a deduction about what should be true, used for things the speaker infers rather than decides. ばかり after a dictionary-form verb means 'only does nothing but ~', describing exclusive repetition rather than a decision. ところです marks the immediate stage of an action, clashing with the distant time frame 来年.
