Beijing No. 4 High School International Campus

Application fees

- No institution-wide, public figure for a non-refundable application or registration fee for Beijing No.4 High School International Campus (including the Jialian/佳莲 campus) is published in the school's public admissions materials reviewed.

Tuition fees (annual and per term where possible)

- AP (international American/AP pathway, high school): RMB 220,000 per academic year (two semesters). Estimated per term amount: RMB 110,000 (annual fee divided by two semesters).

- A‑Level pathway (Cambridge A‑Level): RMB 200,000 per academic year (two semesters). Estimated per term amount: RMB 100,000.

- HKDSE pathway (Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education): RMB 200,000 per academic year (two semesters). Estimated per term amount: RMB 100,000.

- Domestic (mainland) senior‑high (special/domestic high‑school track): RMB 198,000 per academic year (two semesters) for some class-types; other domestic class options have been listed at lower levels (for example RMB 168,000 in some publications). Estimated per term amount for RMB 198,000 = RMB 99,000.

- Published tuition ranges for the broader Beijing No.4 international offerings and affiliated campuses are commonly reported in the RMB 160,000–230,000 per year band depending on program (AP/A‑Level/DSE) and campus.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Tuition is presented as an academic‑year charge and the academic year is organised as two semesters. Students/families are required to pay fees in accordance with the school's published academic‑year timetable (two semesters). Where an annual figure is published, the implied per‑term charge is approximately one half of the annual tuition.

- The school applies a tiered refund policy for tuition and boarding if a student withdraws after the start of term: if withdrawal is within one month after classes begin, 80% of the semester's tuition is refunded; if within one to two months, 60% is refunded; after two months there is no refund for that semester. Boarding fees are deducted pro rata by month (each semester counted as five months in the published example). Families must observe the school's payment deadlines; the school requires fees to be paid by the dates specified in its enrolment/fee notices.

Boarding fees and meals

- Boarding (dormitory) fee: RMB 38,000 per academic year. Per‑term (estimated): RMB 19,000.

- Meal charges (published figures vary by source and year): examples in publicly available materials show meal fees reported as RMB 60–120 per day in earlier listings; a widely cited recruitment leaflet referenced RMB 80 per day for some DSE offerings while other admissions material and third‑party listings show rates up to RMB 120 per day. Expect daily meal charges to be billed separately from tuition and boarding and to vary with the meal plan selected.

Other costs and recurring fees

- Textbooks and course materials: charged separately (self‑pay).

- Insurance and medical check fees: charged separately as required by health authorities; families pay these costs directly.

- Uniforms / clothing: families are required to obtain school uniform items at their own expense to meet the school dress code.

- Optional co‑curricular clubs, extracurricular activities, certain competitions, off‑campus trips, exam entry fees (international exam fees such as AP/A‑Level/HKDSE where applicable) and other voluntary programs are typically charged in addition to base tuition and will be billed separately when students elect to participate.

Refund information (summary)

- Refund rules for tuition and boarding follow a stepped schedule tied to the date of withdrawal after term start: full return of pre‑term fees if withdrawal is submitted before term start; 80% of the semester tuition refunded if withdrawal occurs within one month of term start; 60% refunded within one to two months; no refund after two months for that semester. Boarding fees are deducted on a monthly basis; a semester is treated as five months for pro‑rata calculations. Other refundable or non‑refundable items (for example certain deposits, application fees if charged, or third‑party exam fees) are determined by the school's admissions and finance policies.

Fee payment options

- A standard requirement across comparable Beijing international schools is formal settlement through school finance channels (bank transfer or designated payment channels); however, a specific, published list of accepted payment methods (bank account details, credit‑card acceptance, WeChat/Alipay, instalment plans, or payment partners) for Beijing No.4 High School International Campus / Jialian campus was not found in the school's public admissions pages or the school‑summary materials reviewed. Families should prepare to make payments by bank transfer or other formal settlement methods as instructed in the school's enrolment letter or fee notice.

Practical notes for budgeting (fees‑only)

- Total annual cost for a boarder in an international pathway (AP / A‑Level / DSE) typically includes: published tuition (RMB 200,000–220,000 range depending on programme) + boarding (RMB 38,000) + daily meals (RMB 60–120/day depending on plan) + textbooks, insurance, uniforms and optional activity/exam fees. Published program‑specific examples for the Jialian campus put AP at RMB 220,000/year and A‑Level/HKDSE at RMB 200,000/year; adding the published boarding fee produces an illustrative annual on‑campus total in the range of RMB ~238,000–258,000 before daily meal and other variable costs.

Brief summary of findings and remaining information gaps

- Published, program‑level annual tuition and boarding fees for the Beijing No.4 international offerings (Jialian/佳莲 campus) are available in admissions materials and recruitment summaries (examples: AP RMB 220,000; A‑Level & HKDSE RMB 200,000; boarding RMB 38,000). Refund rules for mid‑term withdrawal are published for the campus and are stated above.

- Missing or not publicly detailed in the materials reviewed: a specific non‑refundable application/registration fee amount for the campus; exact per‑term billing invoices or the school's list of accepted payment channels (bank account/credit card/Alipay/WeChat options) and any deadlines or discounts tied to early full‑year payment for the 2026/27 academic year. The school's own admissions or finance notice provides the final and binding fee schedule and payment instructions to enrolled families.
