<p>relax premanjali
when i talked to the SMU financial office they said that the 30 June deadline is not applicable for us . When we go to submit the froms, we ll get the TFL . So i guess we pay 3775$ now (around a lakh rupees) and get the reimbursment later . for the second semester onwards well pay the subsidized amount</p>
<p>thats what she told me</p>
<p>me and my friend are thinkin to come on 23 July for the sports camp and other activities . Why dont we ll come early so that we can settle down and meet up?</p>
