Lowell
Jonathan is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a law degree at Lowell Polytechnic, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,850. The registrar has said Jonathan can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Jonathan has a top-ten-percent 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 Jonathan would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Jonathan isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He 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 $5,850 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,100 • Final term tuition: $3,350 • Exam and lab fees: $250 • Textbooks and materials: $150 Thank you for reading my story. - David
