Help Min-seo finish a computer science degree at the Gwangju Institute of Technology - $2,850 to go
A first-generation student, Min-seo needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a computer science degree.
🇰🇷 South Korea2,184 views
Min-seo is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a computer science degree at the Gwangju Institute of Technology, and is two terms away from graduating. She has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $2,850.
The registrar has said Min-seo can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Min-seo has a first-class average, and an academic advisor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Min-seo would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Min-seo isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $2,850 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $840
• Final term tuition: $1,800
• Exam and lab fees: $130
• Textbooks and materials: $80
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Best of luck, Eun-woo. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Love from Seoul.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Min-seo.
It's all in the list in the story. outstanding tuition balance is the big one at $840, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Appreciate you taking the time.
Good luck with the exams, you've got this. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 30 years in engineering I know how hard it is to ask for anything. God bless.
sending love, Eun-woo. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Min-seo?
Thank you. If you're in Gwangju I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
Thinking of you, Eun-woo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Gwangju.
Good luck. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Gwangju.
