Help me finish a computer science degree at Accra Polytechnic - $500 to go
A first-generation student, Prince needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a computer science degree.
🇬🇭 Accra, Greater Accra, Ghana1,478 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at Accra Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a shop assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $500.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $500 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $180
• Final term tuition: $220
• Exam and lab fees: $35
• Textbooks and materials: $65
I hope life is good to you.

gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Santa Rosa.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Prince?
Thank you. If you're in Accra I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
wishing you the best, Prince. Your post was clear and honest.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Prince.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. outstanding tuition balance comes first ($180) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Let me know if you want more detail.
Sending strength, Prince. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.
as a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Kasarani.
Thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. After 29 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything. All the best
