Kai's final semester of an electrical engineering diploma in Erie
A first-generation student, Kai needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an electrical engineering diploma.
🇺🇸 Erie, Pennsylvania, United States1,862 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at Erie Community College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a delivery rider to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,300.
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 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.
The payment will go directly to the Erie Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $4,300 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,000
• Final term tuition: $1,600
• Exam and lab fees: $310
• Textbooks and materials: $390
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thanks for sharing this, Kai. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. All the best
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Lagos

Rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings
