Personal message
I have just completed 2 years of study at the University of Cape Town. My first two years have been successful - I was placed on Dean's Merit List and was awarded Golden Key Honours Society membership.
Throughout my second year, my family was placed under serious financial strain. I am now in the position where my family is unable to afford the fees for my final year of study.
I have R38000 outstanding for this year, which means that I am unable to access my 2nd year results. Furthermore, I will be required to pay R90000 before I register in February 2019. The elevated fees are owing to the fact that I do not have permanent residency in South Africa and therefore qualify as an international student. As an international student, I am unable to apply for bursaries.
Any financial assistance would go a long way. I have secured a part-time job for next year and am doing everything in my power to ensure that I can continue studying next year. Thank you in advance for your support.
