Patrick is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a computer science degree at Duisburg State College, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a warehouse packer to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,150.
The registrar has said Patrick can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Patrick has a distinction average, and a faculty supervisor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Patrick would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Patrick isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Duisburg State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $5,150 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,400
• Final term tuition: $2,250
• Exam and lab fees: $210
• Textbooks and materials: $290
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
