I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a pharmacy diploma at Cambridge Polytechnic, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a shop assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $3,850. 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 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $3,850 goes: โ€ข Outstanding tuition balance: $1,750 โ€ข Final term tuition: $1,650 โ€ข Exam and lab fees: $145 โ€ข Textbooks and materials: $305 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
