Milan's final semester of a degree in social work in Rotterdam
Milan has worked and saved for three years to study a degree in social work; a $3,700 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 Rotterdam State College, 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 $3,700.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 average, and my faculty supervisor 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 $3,700 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,000
• Final term tuition: $1,300
• Exam and lab fees: $95
• Textbooks and materials: $305
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Your post was clear and honest. After 23 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Rotterdam
