I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a master's in public health at Newcastle University, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $5,450. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 average, and my department head has written in support of my application for a payment plan. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility. I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Newcastle University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $5,450 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $220 • Outstanding tuition balance: $3,050 • Final term tuition: $2,180 Glad we found this place.
