I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Kumasi State College, and I'm two terms 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 $450.
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 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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $450 goes:
• Exam and lab fees: $20
• Final term tuition: $400
• Textbooks and materials: $30
Thanks for being kind about this.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ama
It's all in the list in the story. exam and lab fees is the big one at $20, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Good question.
