Help me finish a master's in public health at the San Diego Institute of Technology - $4,800 to go
A first-generation student, Guo needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a master's in public health.
🇺🇸 United States5,306 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a master's in public health at the San Diego Institute of Technology, 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 $4,800.
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 the San Diego Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $4,800 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $3,100
• Final term tuition: $1,350
• Exam and lab fees: $210
• Textbooks and materials: $140
Thanks for being kind about this.

Your post was clear and honest. Love from Suwon
is there anything that isn't money that would help Guo?
Hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Rawalpindi.
Sending strength. Study hard! Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
How is Guo doing now?
Thinking of you. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Study hard! Thinking of San Diego
Stay strong, Guo. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
what exactly is the $4,800 for?
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. outstanding tuition balance comes first ($3,100) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Fair thing to want to know.
Hope it all works out, Guo. Hope this works out for you. I hope October is when things finally get easier.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Pretoria.
Sending strength, Guo. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. My neighbor in Oakland donated after I showed her your page
you're not alone, Guo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
