Nashik
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a master's in public health at the Nashik Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $450. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent 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 the Nashik Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $450 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $230 • Final term tuition: $170 • Exam and lab fees: $35 • Textbooks and materials: $15 Thank you so much. - Shefali

                Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Shefali.

                • Shefali Mousumi KarimOwnerAnswer

                  Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. outstanding tuition balance comes first ($230) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. I'll keep the page updated.
