I'm Walid, 17, in Year 12. My parents work long hours and didn't go to university, so there's no one at home who can help me understand applications, deadlines or financial aid. I'd like to study computer science.
I have a 3.7 average, I volunteer at a food pantry and I have a draft of my personal statement. What I need is someone to read my essays, tell me honestly what's weak, and explain how scholarships work.
I'm looking for an hour a week until June. We can do it by video from anywhere. My mother will be at home during every call, and the school counselor knows about this request.
Thanks for reading. It took me a long time to ask.
Thank you so much.

Rooting for you, Walid. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Hang in there, Walid. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Tehuacán
Hope things get better soon, Walid. Hope you get there
