Help me finish a nursing degree at Bogotá Community College - $1,200 to go
A first-generation student, Arturo needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a nursing degree.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at Bogotá Community College, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,200.
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 Bogotá Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,200 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $420
• Final term tuition: $720
• Exam and lab fees: $55
• Textbooks and materials: $5

hope things get better soon, Arturo. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Hope it all works out, Arturo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
You're not alone, Arturo. Hope this works out for you.
Sending strength. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Dwarka.
