Iʼve raised £435 to help fund my University fees as an International Student
- Newcastle upon Tyne, Reino Unido
- Funded on Thursday, 22nd February 2018
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
As an international Student or Overseas, paying tuition fees for High Education becomes an extremely difficult task, and when your relationship and your residence in the country depend on having a course offer at a College (with no rights to work in the UK) it just looks like it can't get any worse.
Currently I live with my girlfriend in Newcastle. Since I am from Cuba, I can't fully afford the high prices for College/University courses for Internationals Students. The course is a HND in Game Design, tuition fees are £5500 (for two years) and starts on late January 2018, I will be able to gather around £3000 between my own savings and mostly loans from friends (I'm not eligible for Government or Bank loans in the UK).
If I can't achieve this before my visa expiry date (31/01/2018), basically I will have to go back to Cuba, end my relationship with my girlfriend from 1 and half years and start my life all over again. Every little counts !!!
