Roman is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a computer science degree at Edinburgh Community College, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $2,850. The registrar has said Roman can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Roman 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 Roman would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Roman 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 $2,850 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $135 • Textbooks and materials: $340 • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,375 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Serenity
