I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at Orlando Community College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,650.
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.
The payment will go directly to the Orlando Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,650 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $270
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,150
• Exam and lab fees: $230
Glad we found this place.

Hope things get better soon, Katherine. This could happen to any of us. Love from Utrecht
Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Orlando.
Wishing you the best. This could happen to any of us. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
