One semester away: help Smit graduate from the Ludhiana Institute of Technology
Smit has worked and saved for five years to study an accounting degree; a $550 gap now stands between him and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at the Ludhiana Institute of Technology, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $550.
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 department head 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 Ludhiana Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $550 goes:
• Exam and lab fees: $35
• Textbooks and materials: $55
• Final term tuition: $460
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hang in there, Smit. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Ludhiana.
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Rochester.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Smit?
Thank you. If you're in Ludhiana I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
thinking of you and your family, Smit. Shared it with a few friends.
How is Smit doing now?
So sorry you're going through this, Smit. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Wudil.
I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Sylhet.
hang in there, Smit. Shared it with a few friends. After 23 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything
So sorry you're going through this. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. My neighbor in Manchester donated after I showed her your page!
