Isabelle has worked and saved for three years to study a law degree; a $3,100 gap now stands between her and graduation.

Isabelle is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a law degree at Sydney Community College, and is two terms away from graduating. She has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $3,100. The registrar has said Isabelle can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Isabelle has a distinction average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Isabelle would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Isabelle 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 $3,100 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,650 • Final term tuition: $950 • Exam and lab fees: $150 • Textbooks and materials: $350 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Sebastian
