Help me finish a nursing degree at Cartagena State College - $1,200 to go
A first-generation student, Soledad needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a nursing degree.
🇨🇴 Cartagena, Bolívar, Colombia1,114 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at Cartagena State College, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a shop assistant 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 3.6 average, and my faculty supervisor 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 $1,200 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $540
• Final term tuition: $580
• Exam and lab fees: $30
• Textbooks and materials: $50
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
