Help me finish a law degree at Lagos Polytechnic - $650 to go
Nneka has worked and saved for five years to study a law degree; a $650 gap now stands between her and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a law degree at Lagos Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $650.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent 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 $650 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $340
• Final term tuition: $250
• Exam and lab fees: $35
• Textbooks and materials: $25
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Good luck with the exams, you've got this. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Lagos.
Stay strong, Nneka. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Hope it all works out, Nneka. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Lagos.
wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Take care.
