Scarlett's final semester of an electrical engineering diploma in Bristol
A first-generation student, Scarlett needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an electrical engineering diploma.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom3,655 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at Bristol University, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $2,150.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a first-class average, and my faculty supervisor has written in support of my application for a payment plan.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility.
I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Bristol University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $2,150 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,700
• Textbooks and materials: $350
• Exam and lab fees: $100
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending good thoughts, Scarlett. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Bristol.
Hope it all works out, Scarlett. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
