Hi,
I'm a Malaysian offer holder for Computer Science at Magdalene College, University of Cambridge. Having gone through a time where I could not afford attending school, I value education and have worked hard to earn the offer.

However, while I am completely grateful for the offer, it is impossible for my family to fund a UK education, let alone education from the University of Cambridge. The breakdown of the financial guarantee for international students are:

  • University Composition Fee: £32,214
  • College fee: £9,855
  • Maintenance cost: £11,230
  • TOTAL: £53,299

This information can be found on these websites:

I have applied to a number of scholarships but due to competition, none of my applications were successful. I also face difficulties also because my age has made me ineligible for some scholarships in the future.
Because I had taken IGCSE instead of the national SPM, I am not eligible for many local public universities offering Computer Science. Private universities that do offer Computer Science are still too expensive and I would have to raise funds to study there as well.

Right now it feels like I am grasping at straws as I might never have another chance like this again.

Edit (13/08):

Thank you all so much for the support and sharing. It means a lot.

I'm currently trying to find other means alongside crowdfunding. I'll provide an update on my situation soon.

Edit (26/08):

I'm currently facing difficulties with Paypal and will have to send them my bank statement. Things should be running correctly by next week.
I want to thank everyone again for your support and sharing. Companies have contacted me and I am seeing if scholarship is possible with them. Couldn't have done it without you all!


EDIT(16/09):

With much joy, I want to share that I have recently received a full scholarship for my degree at Cambridge! I want to thank all of you who have shared my page and help spread the word. I have met many wonderful people who have helped me in so many ways. The money donated will be going towards my visa application and flight expense. Without you all I wouldn't be able to achieve my dream and I am truly grateful.
