I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at the Oakland Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,750.
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 professor 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 Oakland Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,750 goes:
• Exam and lab fees: $90
• Final term tuition: $1,350
• Textbooks and materials: $310
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hang in there, Daniel. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Aurangabad
Wishing you peace, Daniel. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Salem.
Thanks for sharing this, Daniel. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care.
Best of luck, Daniel. Hope this works out for you. I'll check back for the next update.
Sending good thoughts, Daniel. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. After 6 years in engineering I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Blessings.
Sending love, Daniel. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Oakland.
Wishing you the best, Daniel. Looking forward to the next update. Take care.
