£200 needed for an English exam
We are supporting a young man from Pakistan and we are thrilled that he has a place to do a Master of Science in Human-Computer interaction at his local university. He has already secured a Sanctuary Scholarship. However all this is conditional on his passing The International English Language Testing System English exam which we are confident that he can do. Unfortunately there are no funds available to cover the cost of this exam and it would be sad if he missed out on this opportunity for his future through not having the funds to take this test.
