I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a diploma in hospitality management at Paris University, and I'm one term 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 $3,500. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.6 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 $3,500 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,400 • Final term tuition: $1,550 • Exam and lab fees: $250 • Textbooks and materials: $300 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

    This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Rome donated after I showed her your page. All the best

      Keep going. Shared this with my family. After 17 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Noida!

        Hang in there, Aurélie. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

          Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Poitiers so I could bring a meal. God bless.
