I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at the Galle Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester 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 $700. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.6 average, and my faculty supervisor 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $700 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $220 • Final term tuition: $390 • Exam and lab fees: $35 • Textbooks and materials: $55 Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Keep going, Prabha. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.

    • So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Galle.
