Duque de Caxias
Ana is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at Duque de Caxias State College, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,500. The registrar has said Ana can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Ana has a 3.9 average, and a department head has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Ana would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Ana isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Duque de Caxias State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,500 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $760 • Final term tuition: $540 • Exam and lab fees: $100 • Textbooks and materials: $100 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Débora
