The Administrative Court dismissed the applicant's request for social assistance to cover living and housing costs during her studies in Helsinki. The court found that the applicant had previously received unemployment benefits and could have earned income through employment or claimed unemployment status if she had registered as a job seeker. Consequently, the court ruled that she was not entitled to social assistance because she had the capacity to secure her own livelihood.
