A first-generation student, Mario needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a teaching qualification.
Anywhere in the world3,755 views
Mario is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a teaching qualification at Rome Community College, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $2,550.
The registrar has said Mario can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Mario has a 3.9 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 Mario would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Mario 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 Rome Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $2,550 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $660
• Final term tuition: $1,550
• Exam and lab fees: $85
• Textbooks and materials: $255

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Mario
Outstanding tuition balance is $660 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Appreciate you taking the time.
Hope things get better soon, Sergio. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
Praying for you, Sergio. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. God bless
Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.

Thinking of you, Sergio. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Rome.
