Tuition fund for Harold: an electrical engineering diploma at Tallahassee State College
A first-generation student, Harold needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an electrical engineering diploma.
🇺🇸 Tallahassee, Florida, United States2,343 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at Tallahassee State College, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer 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 distinction 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 $3,750 goes:
• Final term tuition: $2,100
• Textbooks and materials: $260
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,390
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thanks for sharing this, Harold. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Addis Ababa.
Thanks for sharing this, Harold. Hope this works out for you.
Thanks for sharing this, Harold. This could happen to any of us.
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours.
You're not alone, Harold. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Tallahassee.
hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this, Harold. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
