Tema
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at Tema University, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $850. 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 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 Tema University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $850 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $460 • Final term tuition: $310 • Exam and lab fees: $40 • Textbooks and materials: $40 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Mavis

Updates from Mavis

  1. Update from Tema: the plan for outstanding tuition balance is now scheduled. We're at 14% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 8% now ($70). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward exam and lab fees.
