I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at Johannesburg Polytechnic, 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 $750. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction 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 Johannesburg Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $750 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $35 • Outstanding tuition balance: $620 • Textbooks and materials: $95 Every share and every dollar helps.
