Application fee / admission form

- The school requires purchase of an admission form as part of the admissions process; this acts as the application fee.

Tuition (summary and published figures)

- There is no publicly posted, grade-by-grade fee schedule for the 2026/27 academic year available in the school's public materials. Public materials and promotional brochures describe the admissions process and services but do not list per-grade tuition amounts.

- Media reporting and independent school-cost listings consistently report the school's typical monthly tuition (pensin / mensualidad) in Bogotá as approximately COP 3,000,000 to COP 3,500,000 per month. These reports indicate this monthly figure commonly includes student meals. Use these figures as an overall-market range rather than a published per-grade schedule.

Tuition by term / year group

- No publicly available document for 2026/27 or 2025/26 specifies exact tuition broken down by individual year groups or by term. The school's admissions material and promotional brochure reference the admission steps and available services but do not publish a term-by-term or grade-by-grade price list. Therefore a precise per-term, per-grade fee schedule is not available in public materials.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- The school operates with a standard admissions and formalization process (registration / formalizacin de la matredcula) consistent with Calendar A; publicly available pages describe the admissions steps but do not publish a detailed billing calendar or full payment terms (due dates, late fees, or installment breakdowns). The commonly reported market practice for this school is monthly tuition billing (pensin mensual), but exact invoice schedule and contractual payment terms are not published in the accessible materials.

Boarding fees

- The school is a day school with no published boarding programme or boarding facilities; boarding fees are therefore not applicable. Campus descriptions and promotional materials describe on-site and camp facilities and services but do not reference boarding.

Other costs and typical ancillary fees

- The school lists or references the following chargeable services (amounts not published):
- One-time enrollment / matrícula fee (formalization of enrollment).
- Admission form / application purchase.
- Transport (bus) service fees.
- Student meals / restaurant (often bundled into the monthly fee in media reports).
- Uniforms and school clothing.
- Extracurricular activity fees (sports, music, after-school programs).
- Learning-center or therapeutic-support session fees (where services are optional or extra-cost).
- School trips, pedagogical outings, materials and books, and insurance (standard additional charges at comparable schools).

- None of the above ancillary charges are published with fixed amounts for the 2025/26 or 2026/27 academic years in publicly accessible school materials; amounts are set administratively and are typically communicated during the enrollment/contract stage.

Refund information

- A public refund policy or detailed terms for refunds (for withdrawal, early termination, or failure to attend after enrollment) is not published in the accessible admissions or brochure materials for the 2025/26 or 2026/27 period. Refund terms are governed by the school's enrollment agreement and internal financial regulations, which are not publicly posted in a grade-by-grade fee document.

Fee payment options

- The school uses institutional administrative platforms and payment channels (links to Control Academic and CAS HUB appear on public pages), indicating digital billing and institutional-account handling are in place, but specific payment methods (which credit cards, online payment gateways, or bank-transfer instructions) are not itemized in the publicly accessible pages.

- Independent records of bank-convenio lists show that many Bogotá schools use bank agreements for tuition payment; this indicates that bank-payment channels are commonly available, although the school's exact banking partners and accepted card types are not published in the materials reviewed.

Concise summary of available data and data gaps

- Publicly available school materials (admissions page and promotional brochure) confirm an application-form purchase requirement and list ancillary services (transport, restaurant, extracurriculars), but they do not publish a detailed, grade-by-grade fee schedule or term-by-term tuition amounts for 2026/27 or 2025/26.

- Independent media reporting and school-cost listings provide an overall market range for monthly tuition of approximately COP 3,000,000 to COP 3,500,000 (often reported as including meals), which can be used as a general indicator but is not a substitute for a published per-grade fee table.

- Boarding fees are not applicable; specific amounts for application, enrollment, transport, uniforms, extracurriculars, refunds, and exact payment methods are not publicly listed in the documents reviewed.
