Valencia
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a pharmacy diploma at Valencia Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $3,050. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.6 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 $3,050 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $640 • Final term tuition: $2,000 • Exam and lab fees: $210 • Textbooks and materials: $200 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
