I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at the Rotterdam Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester 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 $4,000.
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 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 $4,000 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,650
• Final term tuition: $1,750
• Exam and lab fees: $210
• Textbooks and materials: $390
Thank you for reading my story.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in El Paso donated after I showed her your page. God bless!
