I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Los Angeles Community College, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $6,850.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 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 Los Angeles Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $6,850 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $3,050
• Final term tuition: $3,450
• Exam and lab fees: $95
• Textbooks and materials: $255
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Patrick
Sure. The biggest one is outstanding tuition balance, $3,050. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Happy to explain more.
