Tuition fund for Lakshmi: an accounting degree at Mumbai Polytechnic
A first-generation student, Lakshmi needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an accounting degree.
🇮🇳 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India1,470 views
Lakshmi is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying an accounting degree at Mumbai Polytechnic, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $600.
The registrar has said Lakshmi can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Lakshmi has a first-class average, and a professor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Lakshmi would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Lakshmi isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Mumbai Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $600 goes:
• Final term tuition: $410
• Outstanding tuition balance: $185
• Textbooks and materials: $5

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Lakshmi.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. final term tuition comes first ($410) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.
Wishing you the best. Good luck with the exams, you've got this.
wishing you the best, Saraswathi. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. All the best.
Wishing you peace. Hope you get there. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
