I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Warsaw Polytechnic, and I'm two terms 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 $1,650. 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 department head 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $1,650 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $710 • Final term tuition: $730 • Exam and lab fees: $85 • Textbooks and materials: $125 Glad we found this place. - Joanna

      • hope things get better soon, Joanna. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

        • Thinking of you and your family, Joanna. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Shubra this morning.
