Meena's final semester of a degree in civil engineering in Ann Arbor
A first-generation student, Meena needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a degree in civil engineering.
🇺🇸 Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States2,089 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Ann Arbor Polytechnic, and I'm two terms 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 $2,350.
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 academic advisor 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 Ann Arbor Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $2,350 goes:
• Final term tuition: $2,000
• Textbooks and materials: $195
• Exam and lab fees: $155
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
