Help me finish a teaching qualification at Awka Community College - $500 to go
Ifeoma is two terms away from finishing a teaching qualification but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $500.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at Awka Community College, and I'm two terms 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 $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 academic advisor 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: $270
• Textbooks and materials: $50
If you're reading this, thank you.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ifeoma.
Outstanding tuition balance is $180 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Appreciate you taking the time.
Hope you get there. Thinking of Awka.
Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
