Dylan is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a degree in civil engineering at the San Francisco Institute of Technology, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,000. The registrar has said Dylan can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Dylan has a 3.6 average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Dylan would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Dylan 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 the San Francisco Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $5,000 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $990 • Final term tuition: $3,700 • Exam and lab fees: $120 • Textbooks and materials: $190 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Skylar

Updates from Skylar

  1. Thank you all. We're at 20% now ($989). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward textbooks and materials.
