I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Sacramento Community College, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a delivery rider to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $5,000. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 average, and my professor 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 $5,000 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,600 • Textbooks and materials: $155 • Final term tuition: $2,245 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Howard
