I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at the Fresno Institute of Technology, and I'm one term 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 $3,250.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction 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 Fresno Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $3,250 goes:
• Final term tuition: $2,750
• Exam and lab fees: $290
• Textbooks and materials: $210
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Best of luck, Aaron. This could happen to any of us. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Thanks for sharing this, Aaron. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. After 10 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
praying for you, Aaron. This could happen to any of us.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings!
Wishing you the best, Aaron. I hope things turn around soon. Take care!
Thinking of you, Aaron. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Bilbao
Keep going, Aaron. I hope things turn around soon. All the best!
Keep going, Aaron. Hope this works out for you. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
