I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a diploma in hospitality management at Athens Polytechnic, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $2,300.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction average, and my professor has written in support of my application for a payment plan.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility.
I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Athens Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $2,300 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,450
• Final term tuition: $580
• Exam and lab fees: $85
• Textbooks and materials: $185
Every share and every dollar helps.

Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Athens.
Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Giannis
Sure. The biggest one is outstanding tuition balance, $1,450. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
Wishing you peace. Hope this works out for you. Love from Dhaka.
gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in São Paulo but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Giannis. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Keep going, Giannis. Your post was clear and honest. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
