One semester away: help Guadalupe graduate from Bogotá State College
Guadalupe has worked and saved for four years to study a pharmacy diploma; a $800 gap now stands between her and graduation.

Guadalupe is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a pharmacy diploma at Bogotá State College, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a tutor to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $800.
The registrar has said Guadalupe can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Guadalupe has a top-ten-percent average, and a professor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Guadalupe would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Guadalupe isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and 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 $800 goes:
• Final term tuition: $710
• Textbooks and materials: $50
• Exam and lab fees: $40
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you and your family, Óscar. Looking forward to the next update. I'll check back for the next update.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Guadalupe.
Sure. The biggest one is final term tuition, $710. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for asking.
as a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Greetings from Gujranwala.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Bogotá!
Thank you. If you're in Bogotá I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Thinking of Bogotá.
So sorry you're going through this. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Wish I lived closer to Laredo so I could bring a meal.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope August is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Study hard! My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Bogotá.
