In-ho's final semester of a teaching qualification in Seoul

In-ho has worked and saved for five years to study a teaching qualification; a $3,700 gap now stands between him and graduation.

Seoul
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at Seoul University, and I'm one term 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 $3,700. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 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. The payment will go directly to the Seoul University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,700 goes: โ€ข Outstanding tuition balance: $1,400 โ€ข Final term tuition: $1,900 โ€ข Exam and lab fees: $250 โ€ข Textbooks and materials: $150 Glad we found this place. - In-ho
