Billing schedule and payment terms
- Annual billing structure: families are charged matrícula once per year plus the pensión divided into 10 monthly instalments. Families may choose early (anticipated) payment options that can receive an institutional discount according to the school's financial policies. Late payments incur interest for mora and the school may initiate legal collection procedures if necessary; students will not receive a paz y salvo until outstanding obligations are settled. To renew a student's place, the family must be up to date on all payments.

Boarding / Residential provision
- The Colegio Británico de Cartagena is a co-educational day school; boarding / residential services are not offered and there are therefore no boarding fees.

Other mandatory or recurring costs (items with published amounts)
- Transport (annual): COP 6,148,295.
- Food / Catering (annual): COP 5,831,431.
- Bibliobanco (Preescolar): COP 603,168; Bibliobanco (Primaria): COP 1,206,337; Bibliobanco (Bachillerato): COP 1,206,337.
- Internationalization fees (varied by grade ranges): COP 436,379 to COP 870,650 depending on grade.
- Student insurance (annual): COP 111,586.
- Student ID (carnet): COP 15,079.
- Certificates: COP 17,693.
- International Master Plan / ABP (Prejardín a 11): COP 1,645,004.
- The school also identifies other periodic charges that can be billed with matrícula or pensión for services or materials such as the bibliobanco (Red Crezco), Portal Web, Restaurante (cafeteria) and Sistematización; extracurricular activities, specific external exam fees, transport, and some materials are charged separately as applicable.

Uniforms and materials
- Uniforms are required; the manual references uniform provision in program and scholarship descriptions (for example, a note about three full uniforms per year in the scholarship section) but does not list a standard uniform price in the fee schedule. Costs for personal materials, specific technology requirements and some school-specific books or supplies are listed among additional payable items and may be invoiced separately.

Refunds and cancellations
- The published financial rules require that families be up to date (a paz y salvo) to renew matriculation; late payments are subject to interest for mora and possible legal collection. The manual does not specify a separate, detailed refund schedule for paid matrícula or pensión in the fee tables; refund or cancellation handling follows the institution's financial policies and applicable legal rules.

Fee payment methods and practical notes
- For admissions the school explicitly references a consignación (bank deposit/consignación) as part of the admissions paperwork and payment process. The manual indicates families must provide evidence of the admissions payment when applying. The manual does not itemize every accepted payment channel (for example specific bank accounts, card payment processors or online payment platforms) in the published fee tables; families should follow the school's enrollment instructions for the exact payment steps.

Summary of amount presentation
- All amounts above are shown in Colombian pesos (COP) and are presented as the school published for the stated tariff period. The Tarifa Anual figures list the combined annual cost (matrícula plus pensión); the monthly pension figures shown are the pensión annual divided into 10 equal monthly instalments as described in the school's billing rules.
