I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at Augusta Community College, and I'm two terms 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 $4,750. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.6 average, and my department head 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 Augusta Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $4,750 goes: • Final term tuition: $1,200 • Exam and lab fees: $125 • Outstanding tuition balance: $3,425 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Vijay

Updates from Vijay

  1. Small update. $3,236 so far, I made the first payment toward final term tuition.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,304 in total) the plan for final term tuition is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
