I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Mississauga Community College, 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 $3,750. 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 professor 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 $3,750 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,050 • Final term tuition: $2,200 • Exam and lab fees: $240 • Textbooks and materials: $260 I hope life is good to you.
