Gerardo is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a degree in social work at Madrid State College, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,400. The registrar has said Gerardo can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Gerardo has a 3.8 average, and a faculty supervisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Gerardo would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Gerardo isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Madrid State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,400 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,150 • Exam and lab fees: $125 • Textbooks and materials: $125 Glad we found this place.

    Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. Take care

    • Stay strong, Francisco. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from San Nicolás de los Garza.

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

          Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. outstanding tuition balance comes first ($1,150) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.

      • It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Madrid

        • Stay strong, Francisco. Hope this works out for you.

          • Good luck, Francisco. Study hard! Thinking of Madrid.
