I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a master's in public health at Campinas Community College, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $850. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 average, and my faculty supervisor 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $850 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $360 • Final term tuition: $430 • Exam and lab fees: $60 Thanks for being kind about this. - Guilherme

    Study hard! We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Hanoi.

      Sending love. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Campinas.

      • Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Jakarta

        • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Guilherme.

          • Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Mumbai this morning. Take care.

            • Stay strong, Guilherme. Study hard! My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.

              • it takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Istanbul!

                • is there anything that isn't money that would help Guilherme?

                  • Thank you. If you're in Campinas I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.

                • good luck, Guilherme. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.

                    Keep going, Guilherme. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.

                    • Shared this with my family. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.

                      • Best of luck, Guilherme. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 29 people at work. Take care

                        • Best of luck. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Seongnam!

                            Thinking of you and your family, Guilherme. Shared this with my family. After 20 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

                            • Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Mumbai donated after I showed her your page. Blessings

                              • Rooting for you, Guilherme. Hope this works out for you.

                                • hope it all works out, Guilherme. I hope things turn around soon. Take care
