Chandler
Rowan is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an accounting degree at the Chandler Institute of Technology, and is one term 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 $4,350. The registrar has said Rowan can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Rowan has a 3.8 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 Rowan would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Rowan 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 $4,350 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,500 • Final term tuition: $2,450 • Exam and lab fees: $175 • Textbooks and materials: $225 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
