I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at El Paso Polytechnic, and I'm one term 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 $1,950.
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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $1,950 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $165
• Final term tuition: $1,550
• Exam and lab fees: $235
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Cora?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about textbooks and materials, advice is welcome too. Thanks for asking.
Stay strong, Cora. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
what's already covered and what's the $1,950 for?
Textbooks and materials is $165 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
best of luck, Cora. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Blessings
Hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
Take care, Cora. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
