Hi everyone! My name is Ainsley Kohli. I’m currently a senior at UC Santa Cruz. I’m currently on a leave of absence due to enrollment restrictions on my account due to an overdue balance from last quarter. I’m currently working two jobs, and it’s still not enough to both pay for my rent and groceries as well as save the amount I need to owe the school in time to graduate in the Spring.

My parents are providing me no financial assistance, and I really would like to continue my education in order to start working in a field related to my area of study. I need 6 more classes to graduate and am suffering from severe mental health problems that would hinder me from taking more time off from school to try and work off my overdue balance. I have tried every possible avenue to try and pay off this balance to no avail. This is the only thing preventing me from continuing my education. I am so close to graduating and this is my final option. Anything you can manage would be greatly appreciated! I appreciate you listening to my story!

These funds will solely be used to pay off my Spring Quarter overdue balance!
