I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at Accra University, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $550.
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 Accra University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $550 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $170
• Final term tuition: $320
• Exam and lab fees: $15
• Textbooks and materials: $45
Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Michael
Good news. Because of your gifts ($60 in total) the plan for final term tuition is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Thinking of you and your family. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Berlin.
Thinking of you, Michael. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
