I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a master's in public health at the Istanbul Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $650.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent 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 the Istanbul Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $650 goes:
• Final term tuition: $530
• Exam and lab fees: $45
• Textbooks and materials: $75
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

You're not alone, Gökhan. Study hard! All the best.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gökhan
Sure. The biggest one is final term tuition, $530. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Fair thing to want to know.
Good luck, Gökhan. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. After 8 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Praying for you, Gökhan. I hope things turn around soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
