Help Shweta finish a degree in civil engineering at Detroit State College - $5,700 to go
A first-generation student, Shweta needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a degree in civil engineering.
🇺🇸 Detroit, Michigan, United States4,973 views
Shweta is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at Detroit State College, and is one term 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 $5,700.
The registrar has said Shweta can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Shweta has a distinction average, and a department head has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Shweta would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Shweta 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 Detroit State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $5,700 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,100
• Final term tuition: $3,050
• Exam and lab fees: $280
• Textbooks and materials: $270
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Keep going, Aadhya. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My neighbor in Nakuru donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Detroit.
Take care, Aadhya. This could happen to any of us.
what exactly is the $5,700 for?
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. outstanding tuition balance comes first ($2,100) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for looking so closely.
Keep going, Aadhya. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
wishing you the best. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Brandon but we're thinking of you!
Sending love, Aadhya. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors.
Sending strength. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together
