I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Lagos Polytechnic, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $750.
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 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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $750 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $390
• Final term tuition: $340
• Textbooks and materials: $20
With deep gratitude,
Lanre

Hang in there, Lanre. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Lagos.
Wishing you the best. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
how is Lanre doing now?
Thinking of you, Lanre. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in George this morning. God bless
Thinking of you, Lanre. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless
keep going. Shared it with a few friends. After 19 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
