Oliver's final semester of an accounting degree in Dundee
Oliver is one term away from finishing an accounting degree but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $4,250.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at Dundee Community College, 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 $4,250.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction 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 Dundee Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $4,250 goes:
• Final term tuition: $1,900
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,050
• Textbooks and materials: $300
With deep gratitude,
Oliver

Best of luck, Oliver. Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 17 people at work. Greetings from Adelaide.
Hope this works out for you. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I'll check back for the next update
Thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Mumbai.
Take care, Oliver. Hope you get there.
