Stefan is one term away from finishing a degree in social work but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $1,800.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in social work at Cologne State College, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,800.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent average, and my academic advisor 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 $1,800 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,500
• Exam and lab fees: $95
• Textbooks and materials: $205
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Stefan?

How is Stefan doing now?
Hope it all works out, Stefan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Epe

So sorry you're going through this, Stefan. Hope you get there. After 26 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Kediri!
