Fees

Application / enrolment fees
- A one-time application/enrolment fee is charged at initial registration. Historical reporting indicates this fee is typically non‑refundable and separate from the tuition deposit.

Tuition fees by year group (summary and reported ranges)
- Current, school‑published 2026/27 fee schedule could not be retrieved from the provided site. The most recent public reporting and press coverage list annual tuition ranges rather than a school‑published per‑term table. Reported annual ranges for Şcoala Europeană Bucureşti are approximately:
- Early years / preparatory classes: from about EUR 7,875 per year.
- Primary and lower secondary: mid range within the overall band reported (several thousand euros more for older grades).
- Upper secondary / high school: reported upper values have appeared in press coverage up to around EUR 11,500–12,000 per year in recent years.
- These figures are reported as annual tuition. Exact per‑term amounts and the school's 2026/27 published schedule were not available for direct extraction.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Reported practice at the school includes an advance/deposit payment to secure a place, with the remaining tuition payable in multiple instalments. One public description indicates a common pattern: an initial deposit followed by the remainder split into equal instalments spread from September through April. Specific installment counts reported in a parent/school summary noted the remaining 80% paid in eight equal instalments from early September to early April. Payment‑deadline dates and the exact instalment calendar are set by the school each year.

Boarding fees
- No boarding programme is indicated for Şcoala Europeană Bucureşti (it operates as a day school). No separate boarding fees apply.

Other costs and optional fees
- Typical additional costs reported to be charged separately from base tuition include:
- School uniform and sports kit (one‑off or periodic replacement costs).
- Meals / daily catering where provided (may be included only in certain programmes or paid separately).
- Transport (school bus) when used.
- Exam fees, external testing, Cambridge/other language exam preparation and certification where applicable.
- Optional after‑school clubs, extracurricular activities, trips and specialist programmes.
- Press and parent summaries consistently note that some extracurriculars and optional activities are billed separately from the base tuition.

Refund information
- Public reporting and historical school communications describe the initial registration/enrolment fee and/or deposit as non‑refundable in the event of withdrawal. Refund and withdrawal policies for the remainder of tuition are set by the school and described in the school's enrolment contract; specific 2026/27 refund terms were not available for direct extraction.

Fee payment options
- Reported payment methods used by similar private schools in Bucharest and described in available school summaries include bank transfer (wiring tuition into the school's bank account), card payment and sometimes standing order/direct debit for instalments. The school customarily issues invoices and accepts bank transfer as a primary method. Exact payment channels and online payment facilities for 2026/27 were not accessible for confirmation.

Note on data availability
- The school's live fee schedule for the 2026/27 academic year could not be accessed from the provided website due to access restrictions at the time of retrieval; the figures above are compiled from recent press coverage, school listings and historical reporting and therefore reflect reported ranges and commonly applied billing practices rather than a verbatim 2026/27 fee table published by the school. The principal public items used to compile the summary include press reports on tuition ranges, a school‑listing that describes the instalment pattern and the school's accreditation record.
