Gilles's final semester of a degree in civil engineering in Limoges
A first-generation student, Gilles needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a degree in civil engineering.
🇫🇷 France2,321 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Limoges University, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $3,800.
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 professor 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 Limoges University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $3,800 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,300
• Final term tuition: $2,150
• Exam and lab fees: $210
• Textbooks and materials: $140
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gilles.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. outstanding tuition balance is the biggest at $1,300. Ask me anything else.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from São Paulo
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Gilles?
Thank you. If you're in Limoges I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
You're not alone. Hope this works out for you. Please keep us posted. All the best.
How is Gilles doing now?
Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Limoges
Stay strong, Gilles. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.
hope it all works out, Gilles. Study hard! God bless.
Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Gwagwalada.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
rooting for you, Gilles. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Jakarta Barat this morning. Take care.
