I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Girona Polytechnic, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $3,400. 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 Girona Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,400 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,450 • Final term tuition: $1,800 • Exam and lab fees: $65 • Textbooks and materials: $85 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Héctor

        Good luck, Héctor. Shared it with a few friends. After 6 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything

        • Hope it all works out, Héctor. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Girona.

          • hope it all works out, Héctor. I hope things turn around soon. Take care.
