Tuition fund for Nomsa: an electrical engineering diploma at Ekurhuleni Polytechnic

Nomsa is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying an electrical engineering diploma at Ekurhuleni Polytechnic, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $750. The registrar has said Nomsa can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Nomsa has a distinction average, and a department head has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Nomsa would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Nomsa isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and 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: • Final term tuition: $660 • Exam and lab fees: $40 • Textbooks and materials: $50 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
