Sade is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at the Lagos Institute of Technology, and is two terms away from graduating. She has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $700.
The registrar has said Sade can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Sade has a 3.9 average, and a professor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Sade would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Sade isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the the Lagos Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $700 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $290
• Final term tuition: $370
• Exam and lab fees: $25
• Textbooks and materials: $15
