Francisco's final semester of a nursing degree in Coyoacán
A first-generation student, Francisco needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a nursing degree.
🇲🇽 Coyoacán, Ciudad de México, Mexico556 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at Coyoacán Polytechnic, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a delivery rider to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,600.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent average, and my academic advisor 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 Coyoacán Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,600 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $750
• Final term tuition: $750
• Textbooks and materials: $100
Thanks for being kind about this.
