I grew up with a negative outlook on money and my future. We were poor and needed help for the community and government for my entire adolecense. I was lucky enough to receive a Pell grant for college right after high school, but due to mental health, and abusive relationship, and unstable housing, I ultimately withrew from my courses in my third semester which were just repeated classes I failed during the second semester. I felt obligated to go to school and was not ready or responsible enough to do well. 

It's a decade later and I have a more stable life and have received help for my mental health. I've also finally decided what my goals and aspirations are compared to the back and forth arguments I had with myself the first time I tried college. I will be the first in my family to complete a four year+ degree program and the first to make any amount of money stable enough to not rely on any support services. 

I'm asking for help with tuition because I lost my pell grant for the reasons above, haven't qualified for any scholarships, and owe 10,000+ in student loans from the first round of college. This debt along with the high cost of living makes is difficult for me to pay for tuition and supplies. I work full time in the middle of the night and am registered for 17 hours in school as well, which is full time and a pretty heavy course load. The stress of work and financial status makes it so difficult to stay motivated and focused on studying. I study and do course work anywhere and any time I am able. I've done homework while at work, at hockey games and during the openers of concerts, or riding passenger in any commute I have. 

My goal in asking for this help is to be able to relax my worry on bills and tuition so I can focus on my study for a PharmD. I have an emotional support system, but any financial issues I run into are ultimately left to me to deal with alone and continues to add to my debt. Any help that can be given will be a huge help for this life changing journey I'm on. All I want to do is help people and be able to support myself and future family with out the worry of being houseless or hungry, or having to withdraw from courses again to have more time to work a "9-5" job for overtime.
