Help me finish an accounting degree at Limerick Polytechnic - $4,900 to go
Eamon has worked and saved for five years to study an accounting degree; a $4,900 gap now stands between him and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at Limerick Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,900.
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 department head 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 $4,900 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,350
• Final term tuition: $2,100
• Exam and lab fees: $85
• Textbooks and materials: $365
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Praying for you. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Limerick!
Wishing you the best, Eamon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Gazipur.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Eamon.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. outstanding tuition balance comes first ($2,350) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Good question.
Hang in there, Eamon. Study hard! We're a small family in Konya but we're thinking of you!
Good luck, Eamon. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
Rooting for you. Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
hope things get better soon, Eamon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care
Wishing you peace, Eamon. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Lahore so I could bring a meal. All the best.
