I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in social work at Arlington Polytechnic, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,600. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 average, and my department head 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $4,600 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $125 • Final term tuition: $1,400 • Outstanding tuition balance: $3,075 Thank you so much.

  • Wishing you the best. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected

    • hope things get better soon. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Jaipur.

      • Stay strong, Serenity. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Soweto.

        • Rooting for you, Serenity. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up.
