Seema's final semester of a computer science degree in Reading
A first-generation student, Seema needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a computer science degree.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at Reading University, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a shop assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,000.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction average, and my academic advisor 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 Reading University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $4,000 goes:
• Final term tuition: $3,600
• Textbooks and materials: $260
• Exam and lab fees: $140
Thanks for reading all this.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Seema?
Shared this with my family. Thinking of Reading.

So sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Reading.
