Help me finish a degree in social work at Uppsala University - $5,150 to go
A first-generation student, Albin needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a degree in social work.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in social work at Uppsala University, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $5,150.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.6 average, and my department head has written in support of my application for a payment plan.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility.
I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Uppsala University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $5,150 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,200
• Final term tuition: $2,350
• Exam and lab fees: $340
• Textbooks and materials: $260
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

take care. Shared this with my family. Love from Liverpool.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Albin!
sending strength, Albin. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Hang in there, Albin. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Asaba this morning. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Jakarta so I could bring a meal.
Wishing you the best, Albin. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Albin. Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 28 people at work.
Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Uppsala
