I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a pharmacy diploma at Fresno State College, and I'm two terms 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 $3,850. 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 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. The payment will go directly to the Fresno State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,850 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,350 • Final term tuition: $2,000 • Exam and lab fees: $190 • Textbooks and materials: $310 If you're reading this, thank you. - Charles

  • take care. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My neighbor in Uberlândia donated after I showed her your page. All the best

    • stay strong, Charles. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best

        You're not alone, Charles. Hope this works out for you. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too

        • Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Fresno.
