Fees
Application fees
- No standard, public application or one-time enrollment fee for the 2026/27 academic year is listed on the school's public admissions information. A parent-association contribution (Patronato) titled "Cuota 2025" is offered for $5,700 and an option "Cuota 2025 + Fondo BECA" for $6,500; these appear as purchasable items through the school's event/store area.

Tuition fees by school year (per term / per year group)
- The school does not publish a public, itemised tuition schedule by grade or term for the 2026/27 academic year on its accessible admissions pages. No per-grade or per-term amounts for matrícula/pensión are available in the publicly visible admissions material.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- No publicly posted, detailed billing calendar or standardized payment-terms document for tuition (for example: due dates, number of instalments, penalties for late payment) is available on the school's admissions or public pages. The Patronato contribution shown on the site is presented as a single-item purchase in the online store.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- The institution is presented as a multi-campus day-school (campuses and the educational stages served are listed), and no boarding/internado program or boarding fees are listed among the school's public offerings; therefore there are no publicly listed boarding fees.

Other costs or fees (uniforms, materials, association fees, extras)
- Parent-association (Patronato) contribution: Cuota 2025 — $5,700; Cuota 2025 + Fondo BECA — $6,500 (listed as purchasable items).
- School-branded items, uniforms and editorial material are sold via the school's online store and editorial channels; these represent additional costs for families but specific uniform or book prices are not published in a consolidated fee schedule on the public admissions pages.

Refund information
- There is no publicly posted, detailed refund policy for tuition, matrícula or the Patronato contribution on the admissions or public pages. The school's public materials do not contain a clearly itemised refund/return policy for fees visible to general visitors.

Fee payment options
- The public product page for the Patronato contribution displays an online purchase mechanism; however, the school does not publish a detailed list of accepted payment methods for tuition (for example: specific bank transfers, SPEI, credit/debit cards) on its public admissions pages. Contact phone and general email addresses for the school are provided for administrative matters.

Summary of findings and data gaps (concise)
- The school's public pages list campuses, admissions contacts and an online store item for a parent-association contribution, but they do not publish a complete, grade-by-grade tuition schedule, billing calendar, payment-method list, refund policy or any boarding fees for the 2026/27 academic year. The only explicit fee amount publicly listed and purchasable is the Patronato "Cuota 2025" and the Patronato "Cuota 2025 + Fondo BECA."
