Application fees
- No separate application fee is charged for admission to the school's programs. The admissions process for the IB Programme is handled through required forms, evaluations and a selection committee rather than by payment of an application fee.
Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)
- Regular tuition: There is no regular tuition charged for attending the Liceo Experimental Bilingüe de Palmares because the institution operates under the Ministry of Public Education (Ministerio de Educación Pública) as a public bilingual school. No per-term or per-year tuition amounts are published for grade levels.
- IB Programme (external assessment / certification): The school handles matriculation and standardized-test registration through the institutional platforms required by the IB and the Ministry; any external examination or certification fees administered through those platforms are handled as separate administrative charges, but no fixed per-student IB fee amounts are published in the school's admission materials.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Uniform payments: Uniform procurement is scheduled with a two-stage payment: a 50% payment at uniform measurement and the remaining 50% at uniform delivery. Specific dates for those two payments are published in the school's admission cronograma (measurement and 50% payment; delivery and final 50% payment). The school issues an invoice at the time of uniform delivery.
- Matriculation events: Matriculation for new IB entrants and other registration events are held on scheduled dates (the cronograma lists the matriculation day and times for new entrants). These events are referenced as the institutional moments for completing enrollment and any related payments or paperwork.
Boarding fees (if applicable)
- Boarding: Not applicable. The Liceo Experimental Bilingüe de Palmares is presented as a public day school operating under the national education authority; no boarding facilities or boarding fee schedules are published.
Other costs and fees
- Uniforms: Parents are required to purchase the school uniform; payments follow the 50%/50% schedule at measurement and delivery as noted above. An invoice is provided at delivery.
- Field trips and extracurricular activities: The school runs curricular trips and extracurricular activities; these activities may require additional payments (trip fees, transport, entrance fees, materials). No fixed prices are published for these items in the school's publicly available admission or calendar materials.
- Study materials / technology: The admissions documentation references requirements such as providing documentation and indicates whether a student has a laptop and internet access; additional material or technology contributions may be expected but no standard per-student material fees are published.
- Examination / registration platform charges: The school references matriculation in institutional platforms (PAI) and the administration of standardized or IB-related registrations; such registrations can carry administrative or exam fees, but no specific fee amounts are published by the school.
Refund information
- No published refund policy for uniforms, enrolment payments or other charges appears in the school's admission policy or the admission cronograma. If a payment-specific refund policy applies, it is handled through the school's administrative procedures but no standardized refund amounts or terms are published in the publicly available admission materials.
Fee payment options
- Payment method details (credit card, bank transfer, online portal) are not specified in the school's public admission materials. The cronograma indicates in-person collection and that an invoice (factura) is issued at the time of uniform delivery, which indicates payments are processed through the school's administrative office at enrollment or delivery events. Parents should expect in-person payment and invoicing procedures at scheduled events.
Availability note
- The school's published admission policy, cronogramas and IB matriculation materials specify schedules, required documentation, uniform payment timing and the institutional enrollment process, but do not publish numeric amounts for application fees, tuition by year/term, boarding fees, uniform pricing or standardized exam fees for the 2026/27 (or 2025/26) academic cycle. The content above lists the fee categories and payment schedules that are published; specific monetary amounts are not provided in the school's publicly available admission documents.
