Leonardo's final semester of a degree in social work in Buenos Aires
Leonardo has worked and saved for four years to study a degree in social work; a $1,300 gap now stands between him and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in social work at the Buenos Aires Institute of Technology, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a delivery rider to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,300.
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.
The payment will go directly to the the Buenos Aires Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,300 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $600
• Final term tuition: $550
• Exam and lab fees: $85
• Textbooks and materials: $65
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

So sorry you're going through this, Leonardo. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings

Best of luck. This could happen to any of us.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Leonardo?
Thank you. If you're in Buenos Aires I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
Keep going, Leonardo. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
