I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at Padua State College, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a delivery rider to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $3,250. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent average, and my faculty supervisor 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. The payment will go directly to the Padua State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,250 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,050 • Final term tuition: $1,700 • Exam and lab fees: $210 • Textbooks and materials: $290 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Marco

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Marco

    • Marco Giorgio ValentiniOwnerAnswer

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. outstanding tuition balance comes first ($1,050) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for looking so closely.

                Best of luck, Marco. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My neighbor in Mandaue donated after I showed her your page.
