Billing schedule and payment terms

- Billing frequency: Tuition fees are charged annually. New-starter charges (registration fee and initial tuition instalment) are payable prior to a new student commencing. If a student enrols after the start of the school year, tuition is prorated using the school's formula (example given:

days / 180 × annual tuition).

- Payment methods and plans:
- Single up-front payment: pay the full annual tuition before the school year starts and receive a discount of 7.5% on the tuition amount.
- Monthly instalment plan via Direct Debit: initial instalment equal to 25% of the total amount, with the remainder divided into 10 equal monthly payments. Choosing this instalment plan increases the total price by 4% (administration and banking costs). Direct Debit is the stated method for the monthly instalment plan.
- New-starter payment requirement: New students joining at the start of the school year must pay the registration fee and the first instalment of tuition prior to commencing.

Notice, withdrawal and refund-related points

- Notice period: A written, one-month notice is required to withdraw a student; fees are payable through the end of the notice period.
- Non-refundable charges: The registration fee and the capital levy are one-time, non-refundable charges.
- Re-enrolment fee handling: The re-enrolment fee of EUR 2,000 is charged at the end of the academic year and is then deducted from the following year's annual tuition.
- Proration: If a student enrols after the start of the school year, tuition is prorated based on the entry date (the school provides the prorating formula).

Boarding-specific billing details

- Boarding fees are charged separately from tuition; selecting boarding does not replace tuition charges. Boarding fees cover weekly residential provision and on-site services as described above. Flexible boarding options (5-day or 7-day) are available to accommodate regional and international family needs.

Accepted payment mechanisms (as stated by the school)

- Direct Debit is available for the monthly instalment plan. The school sets out two principal payment approaches: (1) single up-front payment (with the 7.5% discount) and (2) the Direct Debit monthly instalment plan (25% initial instalment + 10 monthly payments, with a 4% surcharge). Specific payment channels (bank transfer, card, third-party processors) are handled by the school's finance office according to the chosen payment method and invoicing; families are required to follow the school's invoicing instructions when arranging payment.

KSI Montenegro is an IB World School offering the Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP). The IB continuum is delivered on one campus: Early Years & Primary (ages 3–11) follow the PYP; Middle School (ages 11–16) follows the MYP; and Pre-University (ages 16–18) follows the DP. The PYP is designed for students aged 3 to 12 and develops the whole child as an inquirer through six interdisciplinary themes explored via six subject areas, including languages, mathematics, science, social studies, arts, and personal, social and physical education. The MYP is designed for students aged 11 to 16 and consists of eight subject groups; students study at least two languages and complete projects such as a Year 10 community project and, later, a personal project. The DP is designed for students aged 16–18 and is a rigorous program culminating in external examinations; students must choose six courses from five groups and complete the core requirements: the extended essay, theory of knowledge (TOK), and creativity, activity and service (CAS). A bilingual and multilingual learning (BML) curriculum integrates English, Russian and Montenegrin into units of inquiry and subject learning.
