I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Macon University, and I'm one term 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 $3,250. 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 department head 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 Macon University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,250 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $250 • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,700 • Exam and lab fees: $300 Thank you for reading my story. - Hudson

Updates from Hudson

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($804 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
