A first-generation student, Leonardo needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a law degree.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a law degree at Salvador State College, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,500.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a first-class 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.
The payment will go directly to the Salvador State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,500 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $440
• Textbooks and materials: $115
• Final term tuition: $945
Thanks for reading all this.

Hang in there, Leonardo. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn.
Thanks for sharing this, Leonardo. Your post was clear and honest. After 17 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care
Good luck, Leonardo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Epe but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope you get there. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Gqeberha.
