My name is R. Saritha. I live in Keezhkuppam village, Arakkonam Block. My father expired and my mother educated me by working as a farm labourer. I passed 12th class from Arakkonam Government Girls Higher Secondary School with 750 marks. I joined B.Sc. Nursing at Right College of Nursing, Chennai. I approached Universal Higher Education Trust for scholarship. They organized a personal verification and made a home visited to directly verify about the financial situation of our family, and offered me a scholarship for higher education. Now, after completing my studies, I am working as a Staff Nurse at Sri Laithambikai Medical College and Hospital at Chennai. I am thankful to “UHET” for making my dream of higher education come true.
