One semester away: help Jyoti graduate from Lucknow Polytechnic

Jyoti has worked and saved for five years to study a computer science degree; a $650 gap now stands between her and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at Lucknow Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant 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 first-class 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 Lucknow Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $650 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $310 • Final term tuition: $300 • Exam and lab fees: $20 • Textbooks and materials: $20 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
