Egyptian student - was refused tourist visa from UK?

Obviously, for every visa there are requirements, and if you don't meet them, you likely won't get the visa. There's no way around that.

So in this case, they wanted two things:

Evidence of cash in your bank statements to support yourself during the trip. They generally ask for the past 3 months to show that you haven't just dumped a large sum in to satisfy them. Going from ZERO to 5,000 would raise questions like that - it's not a normal transaction flow. You're going to have to either write an accompanying letter explaining the account history behaviour, or wait another month to show then that your last 3 months have decent cash.
They want evidence that you're going to return to Egypt - ie to study. Have you enrolled in next year yet? If so, the university will usually be able to provide a letter for you stating that you're enrolled for the next year. They'll have done this many times for other students as well, so will know what to provide.
