Pay for University

Hello,

My name is Angel and I am hoping I can get enough funds to be able to come back for the spring semester! I am currently going to Northern Arizona University as an aspiring Nursing major. I chose to do nursing because back in 2020, I was hospitalized for a few months concerning a medical condition called Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA). It took about a year to recover enough to do things on my own and it still affects me today as my condition doesn't allow me to have a job. Instead of succumbing to my condition and accepting it as something that will hold me back, I turned it into inspiration to further my education in nursing so I can help others the way I was supported in recovery. My degree emphasis is native health which will allow me to practice on nearby Indigenous reservations if I am able to get into the nursing program my junior and senior year. I have always done great in school and it has passed on to my experience here at NAU as I have just finished exams and passed with flying colors. I have recieved a few scholarships for doing great in high school but sadly they are not enough as this semester I still owe $4,000 and next semester I will owe around $8,000 as I am being given more courses. This fund can really help me achieve my dream to be much more than my critical health as well as helping others and growing upon my academic intellect. The due date to get my college funds paid off is January 6th, 2023. Otherwise, I may not be able to come back. Anything will help and I promise it will be put to good use as I am a very determined, hard working, and independent individual.

Thank you for reading my story,

Angel Barboza
