Gdansk Tuition Hike to 32 000 zloty

There was just a huge tuition hike, mainly because they changed the payment currency to Zloty. They want 32 000 zl, for every year now. Before it was $12000 for first year, and $8,000 for the remaining 5 years. Now with the exchange rate, tuition costs $15,238 for each year. I'm not sure if this applies to current students.

Wow, u guys are also having this same problem. I'm in Poznan and our school is trying the same thing. Its illegal what our school is doing. Read your contracts!!!! The student body is hiring a lawyer here in poznan to fight against the school. They can't just change to zloty and raise the tuition that high. Our school also tried to raise it to 30,000pln. Def fight against your school. These rektors think they are so powerful and hot pooh pooh, u guys have to put them in place. We have 2 different lawyers and filed a complaint with the education ministry in Warsaw. According to our contracts we should be paying $9500 per year w/ a max per year 5% increase.

If the school tries to justify their increase and change to zloty because of the weak dollar, ITS baloney!!! The dollar has been falling for quite awhile, it didn't fall over night. Our school had a chance awhile back to insure your dollar.
THE STUDENTS ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FAILURES OF THE SCHOOL"S ADMINISTRATION!!
