One semester away: help Gheorghe graduate from București Community College
Gheorghe has worked and saved for three years to study a law degree; a $1,700 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 București Community College, and I'm one semester 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 $1,700.
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 $1,700 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $390
• Final term tuition: $1,200
• Exam and lab fees: $80
• Textbooks and materials: $30
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

best of luck, Gheorghe. Looking forward to the next update. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gheorghe
Sure. The biggest one is outstanding tuition balance, $390. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for looking so closely.
Praying for you, Gheorghe. Hope this works out for you.
Good luck, Gheorghe. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Southampton but we're thinking of you. God bless!
