Onyango is two terms away from finishing a teaching qualification but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $900.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at Mwanza State College, and I'm two terms 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 $900.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 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.
The payment will go directly to the Mwanza State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $900 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $410
• Final term tuition: $450
• Exam and lab fees: $30
• Textbooks and materials: $10
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Update from Mwanza: I made the first payment toward textbooks and materials. We're at 2% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

Thinking of you, Onyango. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours.
Hope things get better soon, Onyango. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Mwanza
Study hard! I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
Sending love, Onyango. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Mwanza.
Hang in there, Onyango. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Kazan.
