Như is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at Hồ Chí Minh City State College, and is two terms 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 $650.
The registrar has said Như can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Như 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 Như would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Như 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 $650 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $250
• Final term tuition: $280
• Exam and lab fees: $40
• Textbooks and materials: $80

Updates from Thảo
Good news. Because of your gifts ($110 in total) I made the first payment toward textbooks and materials. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 13% funded and the plan for outstanding tuition balance is now scheduled. - Thảo
