Reagan has worked and saved for three years to study a degree in civil engineering; a $3,850 gap now stands between her and graduation.

Reagan is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at the Charlotte Institute of Technology, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $3,850. The registrar has said Reagan can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Reagan has a first-class 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 Reagan would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Reagan 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 $3,850 goes: โ€ข Outstanding tuition balance: $1,300 โ€ข Final term tuition: $2,100 โ€ข Exam and lab fees: $90 โ€ข Textbooks and materials: $360 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
