Help me finish my senior year

Donation protected


I am an undocumented student & DACA recipient currently in the U.S. I attend Texas State University but because of my status and my severe depression, I was forced to drop classes before and now I am over the Excess Hour Limit which forces me to pay as an out-of-state student. However I am unable to pay that because it's too expensive. I've been taking short semesters because it's already too expensive as is. I also cannot appeal it because I have to be Pell Grant eligible which I am not because I have to be a U.S. citizen:  http://advising.txstate.edu/policies/excessive-hours.html Please help me finish my senior year of college. I am so close, I don't want togive up when I am so close to the finish line.
I currently work cleaning houses but that only covers my living expenses.
I am a GIS Major with a German minor. I was president of World Community Club, an org for international students at my communitity college and I am currently Secretary for an undocumented student organization. We are lucky that even though we just started it, we have already secured funding for a $1k scholarship. I am so happy to be helping students like myself. We have only juststarted this organization but we hope it can keep growing and we can become more involved in the community.

If you want anything translated I can help with that since I used to volunteer at Interfaith-Refugee Services of Texas. I used to translate things for them and other people like a few AISD board candidates.
Please know that anything helps, really anything. Finishing this degree and getting to work will put my family at ease. Please help me finish one more year of university.

Here are the tuition rates for my university: http://www.finaid.txstate.edu/undergraduate/cost.html#COAProEnroll
