Tuition fund for Greyson: a degree in civil engineering at Christchurch Polytechnic
Greyson has worked and saved for four years to study a degree in civil engineering; a $3,000 gap now stands between him and graduation.
🇳🇿 Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand2,249 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Christchurch 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 $3,000.
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 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.
The payment will go directly to the Christchurch Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $3,000 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,200
• Final term tuition: $1,400
• Exam and lab fees: $270
• Textbooks and materials: $130

As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings
Praying for you, Greyson. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Christchurch.
Study hard! I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Christchurch.
Thank you. If you're in Christchurch I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
Shared it with a few friends. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Mapo
Thanks for sharing this, Greyson. Shared this with my family. All the best.
take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from El Paso.
best of luck. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. After 8 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
