My name is Zaman Sharifi, and I am an incoming international student at Universitas Gadjah Mada from Afghanistan.
I have been awarded a 100% tuition fee scholarship by UGM, for which I am truly grateful. However, the scholarship only covers my tuition fees and does not include accommodation, meals, or other living expenses.
I have already paid USD 680 for my visa and residence permit process, and these fees are non-refundable. I also need to pay for my flight to Indonesia. Since my financial situation is very limited, I am worried about how I will support myself after arriving in Yogyakarta.
I would like to ask whether DITMAWA offers any financial assistance, living allowance, emergency aid, accommodation support, meal support, or any other programs for international students in situations like mine.
I would also appreciate it if you could let me know whether there are any scholarships or financial support programs that I can apply for after enrolling at UGM.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I would be sincerely grateful for any advice or guidance you can provide.
Kind regards,
