I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at London University, and I'm one semester 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 $3,250. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a first-class 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. The payment will go directly to the London University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,250 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,800 • Exam and lab fees: $165 • Textbooks and materials: $285 I hope life is good to you.
