Tuition fund for Anne: an accounting degree at Amsterdam University
A first-generation student, Anne needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an accounting degree.
🇳🇱 Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands2,872 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at Amsterdam University, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a delivery rider to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $2,950.
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 professor 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 Amsterdam University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $2,950 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $230
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,600
• Exam and lab fees: $120
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Anne.
Sure. The biggest one is textbooks and materials, $230. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for looking so closely.
Hope it all works out, Anne. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My neighbor in Mthatha donated after I showed her your page.
Take care, Anne. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
how is Anne doing now?
I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Takoradi this morning. Thinking of Amsterdam.
Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
Good luck with the exams, you've got this. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Savar
hope it all works out, Anne. Shared this with my family. After 23 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Ikeja
