I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a pharmacy diploma at the Fresno Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $2,950.
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 faculty supervisor 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 the Fresno Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $2,950 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $350
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,350
• Exam and lab fees: $250
Thank you for reading my story.

keep going, Amparo. This could happen to any of us
Hope it all works out, Amparo. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
hope it all works out, Amparo. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Alcalá de Henares this morning. All the best
Wishing you peace, Amparo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours.
sending love, Amparo. It takes guts to ask. Well done
This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Chiang Mai so I could bring a meal.
