I need for my education. I have been living in Pakistan as a refugee for five years. While living here, I was studying in a graphic design course, but because of various problems and my legal status in Pakistan, I was unable to continue the course.
However, I can still continue my studies online. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to buy a laptop, which is essential for my education, because I do not have enough money. I am determined to continue learning and improving my skills, but I need support to obtain the equipment necessary for my studies.
Hello, I am an Afghan female student and a high school graduate. I am very interested in continuing my education, but due to my financial situation, I cannot afford tuition and educational expenses. I would be very grateful if you could guide me about available scholarships or financial support, including tuition, internet, or a laptop. Thank you.
