Asma is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Saint-Denis Polytechnic, and is two terms 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 $3,450. The registrar has said Asma can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Asma has a first-class average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Asma would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Asma isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Saint-Denis Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,450 goes: β€’ Outstanding tuition balance: $1,950 β€’ Final term tuition: $1,250 β€’ Exam and lab fees: $95 β€’ Textbooks and materials: $155 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Maryam

Updates from Maryam

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($2,353 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. 81% there. I met with the university and confirmed the amounts. Thank you.

  3. Wanted to say thank you properly. 44% funded and I made the first payment toward outstanding tuition balance.

      I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Suwon.
