I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a diploma in hospitality management at London University, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $5,000.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 average, and my faculty supervisor 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 London University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $5,000 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $350
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,950
• Final term tuition: $2,700

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Miles
Textbooks and materials is $350 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
so sorry you're going through this. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn
Sending strength, Miles. Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 34 people at work. Love from Uberlândia
Hope things get better soon, Miles. Hope this works out for you. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Monterrey
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Angeles
