I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Sacramento State College, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,200. 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 academic advisor 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 Sacramento State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $4,200 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $200 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,900 • Final term tuition: $2,100 Thank you so much.

    Stay strong, Eva. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home!
