(These annual tuition figures are reported by independent school‑fees databases and directories that list Etqan Global Academy's 2025/2026 fee schedule.)

Estimated per‑term / per‑installment amounts (calculated)

The school does not publish a single public breakdown of per‑term invoices. Independent reporting indicates the school offers flexible installment plans (reported ranges include 3 to 6 installments for specific campaigns); because EGA's public materials do not list standard per‑term invoice amounts, the per‑term figures below are calculated estimates derived from the published annual tuition amounts (annual ÷ number of installments). Use these as arithmetic estimates only, not as official invoice values.

Examples (rounded to nearest QAR):

- Kindergarten 1 (QAR 42,500 annual):
- 2 installments: QAR 21,250 per installment.
- 3 installments: QAR 14,167 per installment.
- 6 installments: QAR 7,083 per installment.

- Grade 1 (QAR 48,700 annual):
- 2 installments: QAR 24,350 per installment.
- 3 installments: QAR 16,233 per installment.
- 6 installments: QAR 8,117 per installment.

- Grade 6 (QAR 52,850 annual):
- 2 installments: QAR 26,425 per installment.
- 3 installments: QAR 17,617 per installment.
- 6 installments: QAR 8,808 per installment.

- Grade 10 (QAR 65,800 annual):
- 2 installments: QAR 32,900 per installment.
- 3 installments: QAR 21,933 per installment.
- 6 installments: QAR 10,967 per installment.

These per‑installment figures are arithmetic divisions of the published annual tuition and are offered only because the school's public material does not show a standard per‑term table.

Billing schedule and payment terms

No definitive, detailed billing calendar (explicit invoice dates, deadlines and penalty schedule) is published in the school's publicly visible tuition and policy pages. Independent reporting has described flexible payment plans (examples reported include options of 3 to 6 installments for certain campaigns), and the school has run occasional registration promotions (e.g., waived registration for a limited period). Specific due dates, late‑payment penalties, seat reservation rules and whether a seat reservation / re‑enrolment fee is routinely charged are not published in the publicly accessible tuition summary.

Boarding fees

The school is a day school; boarding / residential accommodation is not provided. There are no boarding fees.

Other costs and typical extras

No comprehensive public itemization (uniform costs, transport fees, school meal/cafeteria pricing, textbooks, examination/IB fees, extra‑curricular program fees, school insurance, or learning‑support charges) is published alongside the annual tuition figures in the materials located for the current academic year. Typical categories that families commonly pay at international schools (and which families should expect to check for at EGA) include:

- Uniform purchase(s)
- Transport / school bus service
- Meals / cafeteria plans
- Textbooks and workbooks
- External examination fees (where applicable at senior levels)
- Optional extra‑curricular activity fees and trip charges
- Learning support or individual learning‑assistance fees

No specific amounts for these additional items were available in the public tuition materials located.

Refunds and cancellations

No explicit, publicly posted refund schedule for tuition (for withdrawals, cancellations or mid‑term departures) was found in the tuition and policy pages available publicly. A student handbook and policy documents are listed by the school (student handbook and various policy PDFs are present as linked items), but the detailed refund/cancellation terms were not accessible in viewable form from public links encountered. Where families require precise refund terms (for withdrawal at various dates or for returned fees), those terms are contained in the school's formal policies and enrollment contract.

Fee payment options (accepted payment methods)

No public page with a definitive list of accepted payment instruments (for example: bank transfer, direct deposit, in‑person card payment, online card payment, local bank standing order) was located in the school's public tuition materials. Independent reporting that mentions flexible installment plans does not specify the payment instruments accepted. Typical methods used in the region include bank transfer and card payment, but no school‑published confirmation of accepted instruments was found in the public materials reviewed.

Summary of what is published and what was not found publicly

- Published and located: independent fee directories list Etqan Global Academy's 2025/2026 annual tuition by grade (annual QAR figures for KG1 through Grade 10).
- Confirmed: the school operates as a day school (no boarding).
- Not published in a clear, itemized public fee schedule on the school's tuition/policies landing pages: a standing application/registration fee amount, a full per‑term invoice table, a definitive billing calendar with payment due dates and penalties, itemized costs for uniform/transport/meals/exams, and a public tuition refund schedule. The school's linked policy documents and handbook exist but the full fee‑policy details were not accessible in the public view that was examined.

Key references used for the figures and findings above include the independent fees listing for Etqan Global Academy (annual tuition by grade), the school's Tuition & Policies landing page (policy and handbook links), a reporting item that noted a time‑limited registration promotion and flexible installment options, and the IB school entry that confirms day‑school status.
