I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in social work at San Francisco State College, 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 $4,600. 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 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $4,600 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,650 • Exam and lab fees: $195 • Final term tuition: $1,755 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Carter

  • rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. Love from Ahmedabad.

    • So sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
