I’m an international student studying Art History and English Literature in Scotland, but I’m struggling to afford my tuition fees.

by Regina Maria Abascal Lomeli in Edinburgh, Scotland, Reino Unido

Hi, my name is Regina, and I’m a hardworking international student in Scotland, striving to complete my education despite major financial challenges. Studying here has been a dream come true, but I am now facing a critical hurdle—I need £13,500 to cover my tuition fees and stay enrolled in my program.

Why I Need Your Help

I moved to Scotland to pursue my education with limited financial support, so I took out a loan in Mexico to pay for my first year. Unfortunately, due to the way student loans work back home, I had to start repaying immediately, making it incredibly difficult to keep up with payments while also affording my tuition and living costs.

I work part-time during the academic year and take on extra jobs during breaks—sometimes working up to 80 hours per week just to stay afloat. Despite my best efforts, I am still short on tuition fees for this year. I am expecting some financial relief from an inheritance, but due to legal delays since August 2023, I have no clear timeline for when the funds will be available.

Without this funding, I may have to pause my studies or even leave university altogether.

How Your Support Will Help

Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly toward my tuition fees, allowing me to remain in university and continue pursuing my dreams. Your generosity will not only help me stay in school but also reduce the immense stress I’m under, allowing me to focus on my studies instead of constantly worrying about finances.

If you can’t donate, I’d be incredibly grateful if you could share my story with your friends, family, or anyone who might be able to help.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support—it truly means the world to me.
