'Call me entitled if you want': Indonesian woman, 28, looking for sponsors for S$82,000 SMU MBA
She explained that she's simply fighting for her dream.
An Indonesian woman, Evelyn Clarissa Siregar, 28, has been seeking sponsors for her Master of Business Administration (MBA) at Singapore Management University (SMU). She posted on social media about her acceptance into the program and the S$82,840 tuition fee, which she managed to reduce with an SMU ASEAN Discount of S$3,000. Despite her efforts, the remaining balance still required outside assistance.
Siregar acknowledges she cannot repay her sponsors financially but offers her skills and experiences in sales and content creation. She emphasizes her age, lack of family responsibilities, and determination to succeed without financial barriers. Her plea for support has garnered mixed reactions, with some labeling her as entitled and others expressing sympathy.
Siregar shares that she is a pharmacist by training, working in B2B sales in the tech sector, and found it challenging to find a part-time MBA program. She is refining her pitch to potential sponsors and has received advice from those who have taken the same program.
