Fee Breakdown

Fees

Application fee
- The school charges a non‑refundable application (inscription) form fee; the amount paid for the application form is not refundable under any circumstance.
- Alumni receive a 30% discount on the value of the application form.

Tuition fees by school year (amounts)
- The school's publicly available materials do not publish a grade‑by‑grade numeric tuition schedule for the 2026/27 academic year (nor for 2025/26) in a publicly posted fee table. The institution sets tuition (matrícula and pensión) by Council decision and authorization from the Secretaría de Educación and collects those approved tariffs through its assigned financial entity. As a result, specific per‑grade, per‑term numeric amounts are not available in the school's public fee documents and are not provided here.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Pensión (monthly tuition): may be paid in either ten (10) or eleven (11) monthly installments according to the payer's selection. The full annual pension may also be paid in advance as a single payment covering the entire school year.
- Transporte and alimentación (transport and school meals): charged monthly and billed over ten (10) or eleven (11) months; each is governed by a separate service contract when taken. Any payment received will be applied first toward the pension if the pension is unpaid.
- The school collects approved tariffs through the financial institution it designates; late payment may result in loss of discounts, interest for late payment at the rate certified by the Superintendencia Financiera, and withholding of academic reports or certifications for families in arrears.

Boarding fees
- The school operates as a day school (jornada única) and does not provide boarding services; therefore no boarding fees apply.

Other costs and recurring/occasional fees
- Items charged once per year at enrollment (may be included in matriculation billing or charged separately): plan lector (books — parents may buy independently or via the school), student ID card, study guides, systematization fees, mandatory national or international examination fees, graduation rights, and any other legally admissible annual charges.
- Occasional or event‑driven charges (paid when the expense arises): performances and sporting events, training schools or extra‑classes, pedagogical outings, sacramental ceremonies (e.g., First Communion where applicable), fines for late pickup (compensation for supervision costs), and charges for damage to school property.
- Uniforms and any uniform‑related requirements are specified by the institution but uniform pricing is not published in the public fee documents.

Refund and withdrawal policy (fees)
- Application‑form fees: not refundable.
- Withdrawal before the start of classes: 50% of the value of the matrícula will be returned as a sanction; 100% of other concepts paid at enrollment will be refunded.
- Withdrawal after classes have started: no refund of the matrícula.
- Withdrawal during the first trimester: the family must pay an amount equal to three (3) months of pension. Withdrawal during the second trimester: an amount equal to two (2) months of pension. Withdrawal during the third or fourth trimester: an amount equal to one (1) month of pension. Payments made for international examinations are not refundable if the student is withdrawn.

Fee payment options and practical instructions
- Accepted collection channels include: online payments via PSE (electronic bank payment), direct bank transfer to the school's designated bank account, card payment via datáfono (point‑of‑sale), and in‑person payment at the school's tesorería. Parents are asked to send payment receipts to cartera@mbs.edu.co and to register the payer's identity and the student's matrícula number on transfers. The school's instructive lists Banco GNB Sudameris (account type: ahorro; account number: 90150870830; NIT: 830.096.897‑2) as the bank details used for electronic transfer instructions.

Discounts and special rates
- The Alumni program lists discounts that apply to fees: 30% discount on the application form, 30% discount on matrícula, and 30% discount on pensiones for eligible beneficiaries. Other discounts or scholarships may exist and are governed by the institution's policies and Council approvals.

Important note about numeric tuition amounts
- The school's public materials that describe admissions, billing rules, and the manual of convivencia include detailed billing procedures, payment mechanisms, refund policy and lists of chargeable items but do not publish a public numeric tuition schedule by grade for the 2026/27 academic year (nor for 2025/26). Therefore specific per‑grade, per‑term numeric fee figures are not provided in this overview.
