I'm Rose, 18, in my final year of high school. My parents work long hours and didn't go to university, so there's no one at home who can help me understand applications, deadlines or financial aid. I'd like to study civil engineering.
I have a 3.7 average, I volunteer at an after-school program and I have a draft of my personal statement. What I need is someone to read my essays, tell me honestly what's weak, and explain how scholarships work.
I'm looking for an hour a week until October. We can do it by video from anywhere. My mother will be at home during every call, and the school counselor knows about this request.
Thanks for reading. It took me a long time to ask.

stay strong, Rose. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together.

Sending strength. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Kisumu
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Dwarka this morning. God bless.
wishing you peace, Rose. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 16 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
Stay strong, Rose. Your post was clear and honest. After 11 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
