A first-generation student, Shaista needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a master's in public health.

Shaista is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a master's in public health at the Hyderabad Institute of Technology, 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 $400.
The registrar has said Shaista can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Shaista has a 3.6 average, and a department head has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Shaista would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Shaista 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 the Hyderabad Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $400 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $340
• Exam and lab fees: $20
• Textbooks and materials: $40
Thank you so much.
