I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at Dar es Salaam University, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a shop assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $700.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.6 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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $700 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $350
• Final term tuition: $290
• Exam and lab fees: $45
• Textbooks and materials: $15
Thank you so much.

This could happen to any of us. Love from Depok
hang in there, Florence. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Sylhet.
thinking of you, Florence. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless
You're not alone, Florence. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together.
how is Florence doing now?
Rooting for you, Florence. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. I hope July is when things finally get easier. God bless
Best of luck, Florence. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Sending strength, Florence. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
