I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Auckland Polytechnic, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $3,150. 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 academic advisor 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 $3,150 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,350 • Final term tuition: $1,300 • Exam and lab fees: $300 • Textbooks and materials: $200 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Kai. Shared this with my family.

    • Thinking of you. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

      • Good luck, Kai. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
