International Student Fees

Donation protected
I am Charlton Alfonso, an international graduate student here at Northern Illinois University currently completing my masters in music. My major is SteelPan performance and it’s been my dream for years to study here however, financially is the toughest thing I’ve ever done. As a student on an F-1 visa I’m unable to work off campus jobs and I am limited to 20 hours a week on campus jobs. This by itself is also difficult as I no longer qualify for many on campus jobs because they no longer hire Grad students or they strictly hire domestic students with “Work-study” or financial aid. Due to this I am unable to support myself in paying my student fees. Donations go strictly toward education so that I can become an educator within the next few years.
