Brooks has worked and saved for four years to study a law degree; a $6,050 gap now stands between him and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a law degree at London State College, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $6,050.
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 professor 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 $6,050 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,650
• Final term tuition: $3,150
• Exam and lab fees: $145
• Textbooks and materials: $105
Every share and every dollar helps.

Good luck. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Brooks. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out.
what's already covered and what's the $6,050 for?
It's all in the list in the story. outstanding tuition balance is the big one at $2,650, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. It helps to be asked.
Sending good thoughts, Brooks. Study hard! We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of London.
Thinking of you and your family, Brooks. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of London.
best of luck, Brooks. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
You're not alone, Brooks. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.
