I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a master's in public health at St. Petersburg State College, and I'm one semester 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 $4,050. 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 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 St. Petersburg State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $4,050 goes: • Final term tuition: $1,950 • Textbooks and materials: $320 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,780 Thank you so much.

        Wishing you peace, Isaiah. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of St. Petersburg

          Hang in there, Isaiah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Nagpur so I could bring a meal. Love from Jakarta Selatan

            Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Granada.
