Help me finish a computer science degree at the Ciudad de México Institute of Technology - $1,700 to go
A first-generation student, Gustavo needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a computer science degree.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at the Ciudad de México Institute of Technology, 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 $1,700.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent average, and my academic advisor 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 $1,700 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $800
• Final term tuition: $790
• Exam and lab fees: $80
• Textbooks and materials: $30
Thanks for being kind about this.
