Lina's final semester of an electrical engineering diploma in Jeddah
Lina is one term away from finishing an electrical engineering diploma but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $3,150.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at Jeddah Polytechnic, and I'm one term 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 $3,150.
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 faculty supervisor 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 Jeddah Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $3,150 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,600
• Final term tuition: $1,250
• Exam and lab fees: $140
• Textbooks and materials: $160
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Rooting for you, Lina. Looking forward to the next update
sending good thoughts, Lina. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
it takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Newcastle
Thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Newcastle upon Tyne so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Jeddah
Wishing you the best, Lina. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best
Wishing you peace, Lina. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Rooting for you. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
