Anita's final semester of an agriculture degree in Chennai
A first-generation student, Anita needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an agriculture degree.
🇮🇳 India904 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Chennai University, and I'm two terms 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 $300.
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 department head 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 Chennai University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $300 goes:
• Exam and lab fees: $30
• Textbooks and materials: $35
• Outstanding tuition balance: $235

So sorry you're going through this, Anita. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Anita.
Exam and lab fees is $30 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page.
Hang in there. Study hard! We're a small family in Dar es Salaam but we're thinking of you. Love from Dar es Salaam.
I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Newcastle upon Tyne this morning.
