Myra's final semester of a diploma in hospitality management in Durgapur

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a diploma in hospitality management at the Durgapur Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $650. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 average, and my professor 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 Durgapur Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $650 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $25 • Final term tuition: $360 • Outstanding tuition balance: $265 Thank you for reading my story. - Myra
