Sophie's final semester of a degree in civil engineering in Kassel
Sophie has worked and saved for four years to study a degree in civil engineering; a $4,150 gap now stands between her and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Kassel Polytechnic, and I'm two terms 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 $4,150.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 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 $4,150 goes:
• Exam and lab fees: $210
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,350
• Final term tuition: $1,590
Thank you so much.

Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Fresno this morning. Thinking of Kassel.
