Parents should plan on the annual amount above and confirm the school's current installment schedule with the Finance Office when enrolling.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Fees are required to be paid in full upon approval of admission unless an agreed installment plan is arranged with the Finance Office.
- The school has used an installment approach in past communications (for example, specifying a first‑installment payment window in late May–mid June for the academic year referenced in the school notice). Parents are responsible for any fee changes required by the Ministry of Education.
Boarding / residential fees
- Cairo Modern International School provides day‑school services with bus transportation; no boarding or residential fees are listed for the school. Bus transport is available as a separate service.
Other costs and recurring ancillary fees
- Books / learning resources: a book/resources fee has been listed in school directories and school notices (examples show EGP 7,000 for book fees in published fee summaries). Some communications during distance‑learning periods referenced a reduced online‑books charge (EGP 1,500) where applicable.
- Bus / transportation fees: bus fees are charged where service is used; published examples list bus fees (e.g., EGP 7,000 for minimum‑distance service in published fee summaries). The school operates an organized bus service with assigned stops and bus matrons.
- Uniforms and other one‑time or termly costs: uniform costs, activity fees, extracurricular materials and similar ancillary charges are typical and have been listed in external school fee summaries; specific uniform/item prices are not published in the school's publicly posted fee summaries available here. Parents should budget for uniform and extracurricular costs in addition to tuition and formal ancillary fees.

- If a student is withdrawn within the first term, half of the annual tuition is refundable. If withdrawal occurs after the first term, the annual tuition is non‑refundable.
Fee payment handling and contact
- Fees are administered by the school's Finance Office; parents settle invoices through the school's published finance procedures and deadlines. The Finance Office issues the payment schedule and confirms acceptable payment arrangements and any available installment options. For enrollment, payment obligations must be fulfilled to complete registration.
