Trying to make it to UC Santa Cruz

Donation protected
Background:
Hi! My name is Marissa. I was recently admitted as a freshman to University of California Santa Cruz, which is the school that I was praying to be accepted to. I was accepted for the Legal Studies Major, which is important to me because my intended career for the future is to be a lawyer.  I also intend to gain a PhD in Psychology which will take a great amount of years, therefore a great deal of money. 


The Problem:
I live in a four person household with a fifth on the way, and we are surviving off of one income. I applied to many scholarships but came up emty handed. The financial aid that I was offered leaves me grasping for money. My family cannot afford the family contribution along with me needing to provide an extra three thousand. 


What I need:
The money that I recieve I intend to apply towards books and supplies, tuition, and room and board. I want to ensure that I will not have to go further in debt from loans than I have to. Since I know that I will be attending college for at least 8 years, I need to minimize my loan use as much as possible. Any and all donations are welcome.


To all who donate, thank you so much for your time and consideration. Your donation means a lot to me and is greatly appreciated, and hopefully someday I may be able to return the favor to you.
