I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a diploma in hospitality management at Bristol University, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a shop assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,550.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction 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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $4,550 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,750
• Final term tuition: $2,300
• Exam and lab fees: $240
• Textbooks and materials: $260
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Rochester this morning.
Keep going. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless
