I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at the Dar es Salaam Institute of Technology, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $650.
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 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 the Dar es Salaam Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $650 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $145
• Exam and lab fees: $30
• Final term tuition: $475
Thank you for reading my story.
