Fees

Annual tuition at Letovo School ranges from RUB 2,562,000 to RUB 3,714,000 for 2026/27.

Tuition and boarding fees (academic year covered by published schedule)

- The school's published tuition is quoted per academic year (10 months) and is set by program and by chosen residence regime (day / weekly / full board). For the Russian national curriculum the annual fees (per 10 months, excluding VAT, excluding the cost of meals, school uniform and textbooks) are: RUB 2,562,000 for Day programme (6 days, without residence), RUB 3,074,000 for Weekly board (6 days with residence) and RUB 3,202,000 for Full board (7 days with residence).

- For the IB Diploma programme the annual fees (per 10 months, excluding VAT, excluding the cost of meals, school uniform and textbooks) are: RUB 3,074,000 for Day programme (6 days, without residence), RUB 3,586,000 for Weekly board (6 days with residence) and RUB 3,714,000 for Full board (7 days with residence).

Tuition presented per term / per month

- The school's base tuition figures are published as amounts for the academic year (10 months). Parents may divide the annual tuition by 10 to calculate a monthly amount for budgeting. The school issues contractual invoices and payment instructions in accordance with the enrollment contract.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Tuition is contracted and billed under a written Agreement for paid educational services. Invoices and payment terms are set in the signed contract between the school and the student's legal representative; the contract contains the school's bank requisites for wire transfers. The school's contract form and billing framework are the basis for payment timing and consequences for late or missing payments.

Boarding / residence options and how they are charged

- Boarding/residence is part of the tuition structure: Day programme (no residence), Weekly board (residence five weekdays plus part(s) of weekend as specified) and Full board (7 days with residence). Each residence option carries its own annual tuition as listed above; there is not a separate “boarding fee” line — the residence option is included in the published tuition total.

Meals (charged separately) and related charges

- Meal plans are charged in addition to base tuition and are priced monthly. For 2025–2026 the published monthly meal fees were approximately: RUB 20,630 per month for Day programme meal plan, RUB 30,820 per month for Weekly board meal plan and RUB 37,000 per month for Full board meal plan. Additional per-day supplements for meals outside the chosen regime are published separately in the school price annex.

Other costs and fees (uniforms, textbooks, extra activities, testing, deposits)

- The published tuition figures exclude the cost of school uniform and textbooks; these are charged separately and organised according to the enrolment contract. Charges for optional extra-curricular activities, additional days of meals, or special events are invoiced in addition to tuition.

- Entrance / testing fees: for the school's Junior program a published entrance testing fee (diagnostic) is RUB 49,000. No separate, consistently published one‑time application fee for the main secondary/boarding school is stated in the school's standard contract documents available with the published tuition schedules. Specific admission tracks or preparatory events (e.g., January schools, diagnostic camps) may have their own conditions or fees.

Refunds and adjustments

- Meal refunds and adjustments: meal fee recalculations are made only under the contract conditions (for example, absence for valid reasons and with required notification or medical documentation). Overpayments for meals may be credited toward the next month or returned; where a refund is requested and approved the school processes returns within the timeframe set out in the contract procedures. Detailed criteria and timeframes for meal refunds and crediting are set in the school's food‑services order and in the contract.

- Tuition refunds and withdrawal: obligations on refunds, pro‑rata recalculations, and consequences of early withdrawal are governed by the signed Agreement for paid educational services (the standard contract form specifies conditions for termination, non‑payment and related actions). Families are required to follow the contract procedures to request any refunds or account adjustments.

Fee payment methods and bank details

- The school provides bank transfer payment details in its standard contract and invoice documents (payments by bank transfer to the school's account are the published method shown in contract bank requisites). The contract includes the school's legal and bank details for transfers. For payment via other channels (card, online gateway, direct debit) parents should refer to the payment instructions accompanying the contract invoice; the school's contract and invoice documents include the bank requisites used for payments.

Summary notes for parents (key practical points)

- The published tuition numbers are annual figures stated for a 10‑month academic billing period and exclude meals, uniform and textbooks; select the residence option (Day / Weekly / Full) that determines the total tuition.

- Meals are charged separately on a monthly basis; meal refunds and additional meal‑day charges follow the contract rules.

- The enrollment contract sets invoicing, deadlines and the school's bank details for payment by transfer; it also defines refund and termination conditions.

(If you need the fees presented in a different currency, the school's contract amounts are given in Russian rubles as shown above.)

This phase helps determine readiness for the upcoming evaluation stages and informs the Admissions Committee's decisions. It also serves to ensure applicants understand the school's expectations and opportunities. 3. Screening testing. A screening test is administered as part of the multi-step selection process to gauge overall readiness for the main examinations and to help place applicants in appropriate tracks within the school system. 4. Main exams. The main subject examinations are part of the formal selection process and align with the school's academic profiles. They are complemented by other evaluation criteria to form a holistic view of the applicant. 5. Interviews. Interviews are conducted by the admissions panel to assess motivation, interests, and fit with Letovo's programs.
