Waylon's final semester of an accounting degree in Manukau

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at Manukau Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,950. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent 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 Manukau Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $4,950 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,150 • Final term tuition: $2,550 • Exam and lab fees: $95 • Textbooks and materials: $155 Thank you so much.
