Tuition fund for Kartika: a nursing degree at Jakarta Polytechnic

Kartika has worked and saved for three years to study a nursing degree; a $750 gap now stands between her and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at Jakarta Polytechnic, and I'm one term 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 $750. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $750 goes: • Final term tuition: $510 • Exam and lab fees: $15 • Outstanding tuition balance: $225 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Updates from Kartika

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($401 in total) the plan for final term tuition is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $216 raised so far (29%). the plan for outstanding tuition balance is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
