Tuition per term (approximation)
- The school's published figures are presented as annual amounts. A per‑term figure is not directly published; as an approximation, dividing the annual tuition by three gives an estimated per‑term amount (example: Year 1 approx. EGP 112,000 / 3 ≈ EGP 37,333 per term). This per‑term figure is an arithmetic estimate only and not an official billing schedule.
