Fees
Application / Registration fees

- The school requires an annual inscription (registration) payment for new admissions and for re-enrollment. This registration payment typically covers items such as life insurance for the responsible guardian, personal accident insurance, the SEP quota, student ID/credential issuance and the annual parents' association fee.

- No campus-specific numeric amount for the application/registration fee for Colegio ALTUM de México — San Pablo was published for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year; numeric values are therefore not included here.

Tuition (colegiaturas) by year group and term

- Tuition is charged as monthly colegiaturas. The institution uses a 10-month colegiatura structure for the regular school year (10 monthly payments for the school-year modality). The colegiaturas are organized into two periods: five monthly payments for the Fall period (September–January) and five monthly payments for the Spring period (February–June). Every month that a student attends is charged in full (every month or partial month started is payable as a full month). Payments for students who enroll mid-term are charged starting from the first month of the current quarter.

- Specific tuition amounts (per month, per term or per grade/year group) for the San Pablo campus were not published for the 2026/27 academic year and were not available for 2025/26 on the campus pages or public documents reviewed; therefore numeric tuition figures by grade or term are not provided here.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Monthly payments (colegiaturas) must be made within the first seventeen (17) natural days of each month. A full monthly charge applies for any month started. The payment schedule is split into the two five-month periods noted above (Sep–Jan and Feb–Jun). For students who enroll extemporaneously during a quarter, required colegiaturas for that quarter must be paid from the first month of the quarter.

- Late-payment policy: overdue colegiaturas incur penalties. The institutional regulations for the 2025/26 cycle indicate a monthly late charge (example: 3% monthly on outstanding balances in the 2025/26 normative document); earlier operational guidance in the payments manual references a progressive penalty model (initial recargo and incremental increases). Parents should expect that late payment will generate an automatic surcharge and that prolonged nonpayment may lead to suspension or administrative action per the regulations.

- Payment application and consequences: colegiaturas not paid on time can affect a student's right to participate in evaluations and activities, and outstanding balances are applied to oldest unpaid periods first. Accumulation of several missed payments may trigger suspension or withdrawal processes described in the institutional regulations.

Boarding / residential fees

- Boarding (internado) services are not listed as part of the San Pablo campus offering. The San Pablo campus programs are presented as Pre‑school, Primary and Secondary; no boarding program or boarding fees were published for this campus.

Other costs and recurring fees

- Items commonly charged in addition to inscription and colegiaturas include: transport/transportation (if arranged separately), textbooks and school supplies, camps and extracurricular activity fees, school materials or platform access fees, uniform purchase, and other event or program fees. The institution's regulations explicitly note these items are usually charged separately and not included in the inscription or colegiaturas.

- Uniforms: carrying and wearing the required uniform is an institutional obligation and uniforms must be purchased by families; the cost of uniforms is not published as a standard numeric amount.

- Special annual or grade-end certificate fees: for students finishing certain years (e.g., final year of pre‑school, primary or secondary), an additional fee for certificates or related proceedings may be applied as part of registration or certification processing.

Discounts, scholarships and family/employee supports

- The school operates a financial-aid and scholarship framework that can reduce inscription and/or colegiatura amounts for qualifying students. Scholarship types include ordinary academic scholarships (percent reductions on colegiaturas, e.g., 25% or 50% for eligible students) and family discounts for households with multiple enrolled children (examples given in the policy: 2nd child 20% off inscription and 10% off colegiatura; 3rd child 20% off inscription and 20% off colegiatura; 4th child 20% off inscription and 25% off colegiatura). Such supports are governed by a formal committee and require application and documentation.

- Discounts for early full payment of the school year are provided at the discretion of each campus (a discount for prepayment of the full cycle is offered when paid within specified dates), but early‑payment discounts normally do not combine with other scholarships or supports.

Refunds and cancellations

- Registration (inscription) refund rules: a 100% refund of the registration fee is available if cancellation is requested at least 60 calendar days before the start of classes. A 50% refund of registration applies if cancellation is requested at least 30 calendar days before the start of classes. No registration refund is available once classes have started.

- Tuition refund on definitive withdrawal: if a student withdraws definitively before the end of the academic period and prepaid colegiaturas exist, the school will refund the portion of colegiaturas not yet earned up to the moment of withdrawal; original payment receipts are required for processing. For account credit balances or overpayments, parents must present original deposit receipts to request and process refunds within the current school year.

Accepted payment methods and practical payment details

- Online card payments: Visa, Mastercard and American Express are accepted via the institution's Multipagos BBVA payment gateway (payments initiated in the parents' payment portal redirect to the bank gateway). The school issues electronic payment receipts (CFDI) when fiscal data are supplied. Minimums and transactional requirements for some cards (for example, AmEx minimums) may apply per the payment gateway rules.

- Interbank transfers and payment slips: the payment platform generates a one‑day valid interbank payment reference (personalized payment slip) for BBVA and Santander transfers (ficha de pago with CLABE and a personalized reference). Parents may use online banking or branch deposit using that personalized reference. Transactions should be retained as proof (screenshots or printed slip) for any clarifications.

- In‑branch deposits, cash and checks: the institution accepts in‑branch/bank deposits, cash and checks payable to UNIDADES BÁSICAS UPAEP A.C.; instructions advise writing the reference/convenio on the back of the check and retaining deposit receipts. Payment posting times and reference validity rules are noted in the payments manual.

- Mobile/App payments and account management: a parents' payment portal / app is used to view account status, generate payment references, request invoices and make online payments through the accepted gateways. The portal shows due dates, pending items, options for advance payments and generates the fiscal receipt when requested.

Important operational rules to note

- Ten monthly colegiaturas are charged per school year in the normal schooling modality; any month started is payable in full. Late payments carry automatic surcharges and may affect participation in academic evaluations and activities; extended nonpayment can lead to suspension or administrative action.

Summary regarding numeric fee amounts

- The school's public pages and institutional payment documents provide the structure of fees (types of fees, billing schedule, payment terms, penalties, refund rules, financial‑aid framework and accepted payment methods) but do not publish campus‑specific numeric tuition or registration amounts for Colegio ALTUM de México — San Pablo for the 2026/27 academic year (and no definitive 2026/27 numeric schedule was found); therefore this overview provides the mandatory fee categories, schedules and policies but does not include per‑grade or per‑term numeric fee figures.

- For any numeric fee entry required in your external database, use the school's admissions or finance contacts to obtain the official fee schedule for the specific academic year and grade; the campus contact details are available on the San Pablo campus information page.
