Francisco's final semester of a computer science degree in Ciudad de México
Francisco is two terms away from finishing a computer science degree but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $750.
🇲🇽 Ciudad de México, Mexico908 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at Ciudad de México Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $750.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a first-class 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.
The payment will go directly to the Ciudad de México Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $750 goes:
• Exam and lab fees: $40
• Outstanding tuition balance: $620
• Textbooks and materials: $90
Thank you for reading my story.

Keep going, Francisco. Shared this with my family.
take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Ibadan.
Sending strength, Francisco. Study hard! I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too!
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Ciudad de México
Thank you. If you're in Ciudad de México I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.
Sending strength, Francisco. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Wishing you the best, Francisco. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Wishing you peace. Good luck with the exams, you've got this.
keep going. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Love from Duque de Caxias!
Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Taguig.
