Otieno's final semester of a pharmacy diploma in Embakasi

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a pharmacy diploma at Embakasi State College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant 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 distinction 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $650 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $240 • Final term tuition: $340 • Exam and lab fees: $10 • Textbooks and materials: $60 Glad we found this place.
