Fee details	Fee details Application / Admission fees - Application (right to apply / proceso de postulación): S/ 300.00. - One-time Admission Deposit (Cuota de Ingreso, CI) charged to new students and transfers: amounts depend on entry grade and are payable once to reserve the place. The school's published amounts are: S/ 23,280.00 (entering from Nursery through 2nd Primary), S/ 17,460.00 (entering 3rd–6th Primary), S/ 10,476.00 (entering 1st–5th Secondary). Payment of the Cuota de Ingreso must be made within five business days after receiving the letter of acceptance; payment of the Cuota de Ingreso reserves the place. Tuition (pensiones) — amounts by year group The amounts shown below are the published pension (monthly/period) figures in Peruvian soles (S/). The school requires 11 payments per academic year: one matrícula (enrollment/registration payment) plus ten monthly pension installments. The matrícula amount is equal to the published pension for the pupil's level; the annual total is therefore the published pension × 11. The school describes the pensión de enseñanza as an annual obligation divided into ten monthly cuotas, with eleven total payments (matrícula + 10 pensions). - Early Years (1–2 years): Pension per payment S/ 1,310.00 — Annual (11 payments) S/ 14,410.00. - Nursery (3 years): Pension per payment S/ 1,350.00 — Annual (11 payments) S/ 14,850.00. - Pre-Kinder (4 years): Pension per payment S/ 1,940.00 — Annual (11 payments) S/ 21,340.00. - Kinder (5 years): Pension per payment S/ 2,530.00 — Annual (11 payments) S/ 27,830.00. - Primary 1°–2°: Pension per payment S/ 2,940.00 — Annual (11 payments) S/ 32,340.00. - Primary 3°–5°: Pension per payment S/ 2,950.00 — Annual (11 payments) S/ 32,450.00. - Grades 6°–8°: Pension per payment S/ 2,960.00 — Annual (11 payments) S/ 32,560.00. - Grades 9°–11° (Secondary): Pension per payment S/ 3,070.00 — Annual (11 payments) S/ 33,770.00. Billing schedule and payment terms - Annual structure: eleven payments per year — one matrícula (first payment) plus ten monthly pension installments. The pensión is described as an annual charge divided into ten monthly instalments; the matrícula completes the 11-payment scheme. - Due dates: monthly pension instalments are due no later than the last day of each month; the December payment is due on 17 December. Late payment incurs bank interest as established by the school. - The payment of matrícula is a condition to reserve the student's place for the school year; formal admission of a new student is completed once the Cuota de Ingreso has been paid and required documentation delivered. The Cuota de Ingreso must be paid within five working days after receipt of the letter of acceptance. Boarding / residential provision - No boarding (internado) fees are published; the school presents tuition (pensiones) and ancillary service fees but does not list a boarding program or boarding charges. The published pensión values apply to day students and explicitly note that the pension does not include the school dining service. Other costs and occasional fees - Meal service: the published pension does not include the dining service (comedor); cafeteria costs are separate. - Admission / application processing fee (proceso de admisión): S/ 300.00. - Small administrative/certification fees listed in the school regulations (examples): issuance of an English certificate S/ 50.00; official study certificate (online) S/ 20.00. These administrative fees are charged for specific document requests and processes. - Educational charges described in the regulations: references to "armadas educativas mensuales" (monthly educational charges), lists of textbooks and school supplies, and a Banco de Libros (book-loan) service appear in the school regulations; textbooks, supplies, and some academic or extracurricular programme charges are handled as additional items and may generate separate monthly or occasional charges. The school's administrative communications list the montos, number and opportunity of payment for pensiones and other charges before each matrícula. Discounts and exemptions on the Cuota de Ingreso - Discount/exemption rules published for the admission deposit include: 50% discount on CI for a second child in the Salcantay or Alpamayo schools; exoneration (100%) of CI for a third child in Salcantay or Alpamayo; exoneration for children of alumni of the Salcantay and Alpamayo schools; and a 20% CI discount for students from sibling schools (national or international). Refund / cancellation terms - The refund of the Cuota de Ingreso is governed by the legal formula contained in the Reglamento de Instituciones Educativas Privadas de Educación Básica (DS N° 005-2021-MINEDU). The school follows that formula and any applicable governmental disposals for calculation and processing of any return of the admission deposit. Specific refund timing, calculation and procedures follow the legal formula and school administrative procedure. Fee payment options and administrative process - Payments are managed by the school's Administration and Tesorería (Treasury). The Cuota de Ingreso and other required amounts must be deposited to the school's bank accounts as instructed once admission is confirmed; matriculation and other pre-term procedures are handled by Tesorería according to a published enrolment timetable. - The school operates an Extranet / parent portal (SIEWEB) for families; the Extranet is listed as a school platform and is used in the school's information-management processes. The presence of an Extranet indicates an online channel for administrative interaction and account management (access requires parent credentials). Notes on what is included above - The figures above are published in the school's admissions and regulatory materials for the 2026 academic cycle and in the school's internal regulations. Amounts shown are in Peruvian soles (S/). Annual totals under “Tuition” are shown as the published pension multiplied by eleven payments (matrícula + 10 monthly pensions), consistent with the school's published payment structure.

The application file must include payment of this processing right as part of the admissions steps.

For the 2026 intake the published entry amounts include: - Kindergarten (3, 4 y 5 años): US$ 5,000. - Primer grado (Primaria K1): US$ 5,500. - The entry fee must be paid within seven (7) business days after confirmation of admission and must be fully settled at the time of formal enrolment; failure to pay in the indicated times may result in loss of the vacancy. The school applies differentiated entry‑fee levels and sibling/ex‑student reductions in its published schedule.

For matriculation the school provides a virtual (SIEWEB) phase and a later presencial phase with specific dates. Payment of outstanding debts from prior years prevents completion of the matriculation. - Consequences of late or non‑payment: the school may charge interest at the maximum conventional moratory rate established by the Central Reserve Bank for non‑financial institutions, retain certificates of studies for unpaid periods, and take other recovery actions including reporting to credit bureaus and legal collection procedures. Boarding / residential provision - The Colegio Peruano‑Alemán Reina del Mundo operates as a day school (regular school hours listed and no boarding programme is advertised); there are no published boarding fees. Other costs and optional charges - School supplies and uniform: the school publishes grade‑specific lists of required materials that include uniform items; families are responsible for providing or acquiring required uniforms and supplies. The lists of útiles and uniform requirements are published by grade. - Meal/comedor service: the school runs a school‑meals procurement process for 2026; meal service is provided through a contracted provider and will normally represent an additional, separately billed service. - Optional educational insurance (protección de renta educativa): an optional school‑protection insurance program is offered; published premium examples show typical premiums in USD (illustrative premiums in sample documentation: US$141.00 and US$73.00 depending on coverage). This optional premium covers specified contingencies linked to continued payment of pensions under the policy terms. - Extracurricular or seasonal programmes: the school operates paid summer/holiday programmes and workshops; sample published prices include items such as S/. 320 for a short art workshop and S/. 1,500 for a summer programme package — these are billed separately from regular pensions. - Textbooks and materials replacement: families are required to return any school‑issued texts; lost or damaged books must be replaced or reimbursed by the family. Refunds and withdrawal handling - Return of the one‑time entry fee (cuota de ingreso) for withdrawal is governed by Peruvian education regulation (D.S. No. 005‑2021‑MINEDU); the school follows the rules established in that legislation for refund situations. The entry fee must be fully paid at the time and within the timeframe required to confirm the vacancy. Fee payment options and instructions - Available payment channels for matrícula and related school charges include: - PagoEfectivo (generate a PagoEfectivo code in SIEWEB and pay through the bank/applicable enterprise service). - Payment at collection windows of Banco de Crédito del Perú (BCP) and Scotiabank using the student code. - Bank transfers to the school's designated collection accounts (accounts for CEP Mixto Reina del Mundo published for Scotiabank and BCP). Families are requested to send the payment voucher to tesoreria@rdm.edu.pe to speed up posting. Additional administrative notes (billing practice) - The annual cost is explicitly structured as matrícula + 10 monthly pensions; the school publishes a calendar for matriculation and for the monthly pension due dates each year.

Scholarships	Scholarships —	Scholarships Scholarships are awarded by the Director in coordination with the Promoting Entity for economic reasons. Scholarships may be granted as a percentage of the current pension and only for the period requested; they do not cover the enrollment fee. Eligibility factors include orphan status and family economic need. Scholarships are typically awarded to the eldest child in the family; they do not apply to only-child families or to students in Early Childhood or in the Diploma Program. Applications for scholarships based on lack of resources require a joint request from both parents or the guardian, addressed to the Director, and must include: a sworn declaration that the family lacks resources to cover the pensions; documents proving family income and expenses as specified in the scholarship convocatoria; declarations of property and vehicles; any other documents requested by the Director; and payment of the processing fee (which may be waived in cases of death, incapacity, or imprisonment of the payer). For scholarships based on lack of resources, other required documents include the death certificate, medical certificate of incapacity, or court order as applicable. The Promoter and the Director evaluate scholarship requests and provide a response in the first half of January; in cases of orphanhood, incapacity, or imprisonment, the evaluation occurs within ten calendar days of submitting the request. The school reserves the right to verify the accuracy of scholarship requests and to request additional information. Scholarships may be suspended or reinstated based on the documented conditions and the child's academic and behavioral progression. Suspension for orphanhood is generally one quarter, with potential resumption if the circumstances change.
