Beatrice's final semester of an electrical engineering diploma in Kampala
Beatrice is one semester away from finishing an electrical engineering diploma but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $600.
🇺🇬 Kampala, Central Region, Uganda1,363 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at Kampala Community College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $600.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction average, and my professor has written in support of my application for a payment plan.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility.
I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Kampala Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $600 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $250
• Final term tuition: $300
• Exam and lab fees: $20
• Textbooks and materials: $30
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Good luck. This could happen to any of us. After 27 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
wishing you peace, Beatrice. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Beatrice
It's all in the list in the story. outstanding tuition balance is the big one at $250, I'll post a receipt when it's paid.
Hope things get better soon, Beatrice. Shared it with a few friends.
Sending love. Study hard! Sent it to 23 people at work. Love from Iztapalapa.
Thinking of you, Beatrice. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Beatrice. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn
Keep going. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
hang in there. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Keep going, Beatrice. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings
