education plan expiration

I recently received a message stating that my Figma Education Plan has expired, even though the Education Plan is supposed to last for two years, and I have only been using it for one year.

Since my circumstances have not changed and I cannot afford the premium plan, I reapplied for the Education Plan, but my request was rejected with giving this meesage
: You’ve already used up your free access to the Figma Education plan.

Upgrade your plan to keep creating and editing unlimited files, or create a new Professional team.

Is there a time limit for accessing the Education Plan?

What can I do now???? I genuinely cannot afford the premium plan.😢
