Daisuke is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an accounting degree at Tokyo Community College, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $4,000.
The registrar has said Daisuke can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Daisuke has a 3.8 average, and a professor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Daisuke would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Daisuke isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and 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 $4,000 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,550
• Final term tuition: $2,200
• Exam and lab fees: $155
• Textbooks and materials: $95

So sorry you're going through this, Hiroshi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Kozhikode this morning. Love from Kozhikode.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Daisuke.
Outstanding tuition balance is $1,550 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks, that means a lot.
Thinking of you, Hiroshi. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Casablanca.
Hang in there, Hiroshi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Belém
