I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a law degree at Gwangju Community College, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $2,600.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 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 $2,600 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $880
• Final term tuition: $1,550
• Exam and lab fees: $80
• Textbooks and materials: $90
Every share and every dollar helps.

take care, Soo-ah. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. God bless.
Hang in there, Soo-ah. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Gwangju.
So sorry you're going through this, Soo-ah. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings
Thanks for sharing this, Soo-ah. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Thủ Đức!
Hope you get there. We're a small family in Madrid but we're thinking of you
Hope it all works out, Soo-ah. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn.
