Shared on behalf of Aphelele Ngcongo, an 18-year-old matriculant who got six distinctions - but is struggling with university placement.
"I hope this message finds you well. My name is Aphelele Ngcongo 18 years old and I am from Umthwalume on the Lower South Coast under Umzumbe local municipality.
I recently matriculated at Izibonele Junior Secondary School, where I achieved six distinctions in my final exams. Despite my hard work and excellent results, I have faced significant challenges in securing a place at a university.
I have applied to several institutions, but unfortunately, I have not been successful in receiving a place.
I was hopeful when I received an offer through the Central Applications Office (CAO) for a spot in the Accounting Department at Ungoye @UNIZULUongoye . However, upon arriving at the campus, I was informed that no space was available for me, which has been a heavy blow to my mental health.
Given the circumstances, I am reaching out in the hope that you might consider publishing my story. I believe that sharing my experience may help me find an opportunity or even a miracle that could lead to my acceptance at a university.
I am eager to continue my studies and fulfill my potential, but I need some assistance in navigating this difficult situation. Attached here is my matric result certificate and my photo as well.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could consider my request and help bring attention to my story.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Aphelele Ngcongo"
