Joshua is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a nursing degree at Joliet Polytechnic, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $3,650.
The registrar has said Joshua can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Joshua has a top-ten-percent average, and a department head has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Joshua would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Joshua isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and 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 $3,650 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $145
• Outstanding tuition balance: $3,200
• Exam and lab fees: $305
