Help me FINALLY finish college!
Years ago, I was sexually abused by another student on Tufts University's campus. After finally speaking up about the injustice I endured, the school opted to not academically accommodate; they decided to expell me instead.
What #SurvivorPrivilege?
Finally, six years past my expected graduation date, I am SO CLOSE to finally earning my undergraduate degree in Sociology.
Unfortunately, despite being a mere 11 credits away from graduating, my current school--Rutgers--only gave enough financial aid to cover taking 6 credits. I need your help to make sure that finances don't prevent me from finishing this summer.
***Why $2150? (original goal)
Tuition breakdown:
$345 per credit x 5 course credits = $1725
Summer student fee = $154.75
Online course fee = $100.00
Total tuition: $1979.75
GoFundMe fee of 7.9%: ~$169.50
= $2149.25
