I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at São Paulo Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a barista 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 academic advisor 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 São Paulo Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,200 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $470 • Final term tuition: $660 • Textbooks and materials: $70 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

          Take care, Rodrigo. Shared it with a few friends. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

          • Thinking of you and your family, Rodrigo. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.

            • sending strength, Rodrigo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.

              • take care, Rodrigo. Gave what I could, wish it was more.

                • take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did!
