Armando is applying to university - who can guide us?
Looking for a graduate who can spend an hour a week reviewing Armando's essays until July.

I'm Armando, 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 journalism.
I have a 3.9 average, I volunteer at my mosque 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 July. 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Embakasi.
Best of luck. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
So sorry you're going through this, Armando. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Zagazig.
Wishing you the best. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. After 26 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Lafayette.
Sending strength. Study hard! Thinking of Lafayette.
Hang in there. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Lafayette
hang in there. Shared it with a few friends!
Keep going. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family, Armando. This could happen to any of us. Blessings.
Hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Gwagwalada so I could bring a meal. Love from Tlaquepaque.
