Megan is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Leeds Polytechnic, and is two terms away from graduating. She has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $2,250. The registrar has said Megan can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Megan has a 3.8 average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Megan would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Megan isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Leeds Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $2,250 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $230 • Final term tuition: $1,950 • Exam and lab fees: $70 Thanks for reading all this.

  1. Update from Leeds: I made the first payment toward final term tuition. We're at 36% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 27% funded and I met with the university and confirmed the amounts.
