Tuition fund for Festus: a computer science degree at the Lagos Institute of Technology

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at the Lagos Institute of Technology, and I'm two terms 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 $350. 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 academic advisor 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 Lagos Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $350 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $40 • Outstanding tuition balance: $270 • Textbooks and materials: $40 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Festus
