Pune
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at the Pune Institute of Technology, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $750. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction 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 the Pune Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $750 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $340 • Final term tuition: $340 • Exam and lab fees: $40 • Textbooks and materials: $30 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Lakshmi

      Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best!

        wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Pune.

          Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Pune.

                      So sorry you're going through this, Lakshmi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
