I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a pharmacy diploma at Lagos Polytechnic, and I'm one semester 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 $350. 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 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 Lagos Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $350 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $35 • Textbooks and materials: $25 • Outstanding tuition balance: $290 Thank you for reading my story.

Updates from Musa

  1. Quick update: $302 raised so far (86%). we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 75% now ($262). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the university and confirmed the amounts.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($92 in total) I made the first payment toward textbooks and materials. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely. - Musa

  • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope November is when things finally get easier. God bless

    • Wishing you peace, Musa. Looking forward to the next update. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
