One semester away: help Raju graduate from the Biratnagar Institute of Technology
Raju has worked and saved for three years to study a degree in civil engineering; a $800 gap now stands between him and graduation.
🇳🇵 Biratnagar, Koshi, Nepal720 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at the Biratnagar Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a shop assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $800.
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 the Biratnagar Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $800 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $290
• Final term tuition: $410
• Exam and lab fees: $35
• Textbooks and materials: $65
Thank you so much.

Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Embakasi but we're thinking of you.
How is Raju doing now?
Take care, Raju. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Kathmandu so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Nuremberg
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Raju
It's all in the list in the story. outstanding tuition balance is the big one at $290, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. It helps to be asked.
This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Kasarani.
Wishing you peace, Raju. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Thanks for sharing this, Raju. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Seville.
