Cooper is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a diploma in hospitality management at Cincinnati Community College, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,100. The registrar has said Cooper can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Cooper has a first-class average, and a professor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Cooper would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Cooper isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Cincinnati Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $5,100 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $3,000 • Final term tuition: $1,750 • Exam and lab fees: $240 • Textbooks and materials: $110 Thank you so much. - Isla
