Lucían is one term away from finishing an accounting degree but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $6,150.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at Pittsburgh Community College, and I'm one term 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 $6,150.
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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $6,150 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,700
• Final term tuition: $2,950
• Exam and lab fees: $310
• Textbooks and materials: $190
Every share and every dollar helps.

hope things get better soon. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. My husband and I read this together.
hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings!
hope it all works out. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Take care.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Lucía.
Sure. The biggest one is outstanding tuition balance, $2,700. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for asking.
Hope this works out for you. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Pittsburgh.
Thinking of you, Lucía. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Take care
study hard! I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
