Victoria is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a master's in public health at the Grand Rapids Institute of Technology, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,000.
The registrar has said Victoria can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Victoria has a 3.8 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 Victoria would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Victoria isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the the Grand Rapids Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $5,000 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $310
• Final term tuition: $1,300
• Outstanding tuition balance: $3,390
Glad we found this place.
