COLLEGE TUITION & LICENSE FEES

Hello all!  My name is Nina Austin and I am a 44-year-old, single mother of 3 wonderful sons (20, 16, 13), and am currently employed and completing my graduate internship to receive my Master's in Mental Health Counseling.  I have attended Walden University since 2010, completed all of my coursework and earned a 3.66 g.p.a. while raising my sons and working full-time.  As most students do, I financed my education using federally funded financial aid.  Unfortunately, after moving to Nevada, I found out in my last quarter of school that this state requires an extra quarter of internship in order to be eligible for my Clinical Professional Counselor, Intern license.  The challenge I have is that all of my financial aid was exhausted and I have to personally finance this last quarter.  Due to many challenges, limited income, and credit challenges that are common to single-mothers, I am unable to obtain a Graduate Plus Loan or any other private educational loans.  I have exhausted all avenues and am at my wits end because I can not receive my transcripts or diploma without paying for this final quarter.  This creates a problem due to needing this documentation to apply for my intern license and begin working in the field for pay.  I ask all that read this to consider a donation of any size to help me achieve my goals.  I do not receive any assistance for my two children remaining in my home.  One father is a deadbeat and my other son's father is deceased.  Fortunately, my eldest is serving in the United States Navy and is providing for himself but unable to contribute financially to my goals, and I wouldn't expect him to as he has to support himself.   I ask all that read to really consider my situation and help me PLEASE.  Thank you all in advance.Nina :)
