Badagry
Femi is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an electrical engineering diploma at Badagry Polytechnic, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $550. The registrar has said Femi can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Femi has a distinction average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Femi would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Femi isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and 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 $550 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $200 • Textbooks and materials: $15 • Final term tuition: $335 Thanks for reading all this. - Garba

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Femi

    • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. outstanding tuition balance comes first ($200) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Fair thing to want to know.

  • sending strength. Study hard! My neighbor in Puebla donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Badagry.

                                  As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out.
