Tuition fees by year group (annual amounts and currency structure)

- Tuition structure: annual tuition is split into a U.S. dollar–denominated portion and a Korean won–denominated portion; invoices show both currency components.

- Kindergarten / Early Years (example summary): USD 5,000 + KRW 12,000,000 per year.

- Primary (elementary) years (example / lower primary): commonly shown around USD 5,000 + KRW 12,000,000–KRW 13,000,000 per year depending on grade. The first year for a Grade 1 example shows a KRW portion of KRW 13,000,000 plus the USD portion (total first-year cost also includes one-time fees).

Per-term detail / billing frequency

- Fees are presented as annual amounts; the school applies separate one-time new-student charges (processing, registration, capital) in the first year in addition to the annual tuition and student fees. Annual tuition figures are the basis for billing; directories list the total annual charge and the separate one-time items for first-year billing.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- One-time fees (processing, registration, capital) are charged at application/acceptance for new students. Annual tuition and recurring annual fees are invoiced on the school's billing schedule.
- Installment payments are referenced in school fee notes in directories; one published note indicates that tuition may be paid in installments but that tuition paid in multiple installments may not be eligible for refund under the school's refund rules. Parents should expect the school's invoice to state the exact due dates and any surcharge for installment plans.

Boarding fees

- Boarding is not part of Global Christian Foreign School's published offerings; no boarding fees are listed. The school is presented as a day school (Pre-K to Grade 12).

Other recurring and optional fees

- Student fee (annual; covers items such as yearbook and student services): KRW 400,000 per year (typical).
- Book / curriculum materials charge (annual; USD component shown in published breakdowns): a book fee appears as a USD-denominated component in published fee breakdowns (example converted amount shown in directories).
- School bus (optional): published optional bus fees range by area — examples listed include KRW 2,400,000 (local area routes) and KRW 2,600,000 (other areas) per year.
- ESL (English as a Second Language) supplemental class fee (optional where applicable): KRW 5,000,000 (example published as optional for students needing additional English support).
- Senior / graduation fee (Grade 12): KRW 500,000 (example for graduation-related charges).
- Uniform and other incidental costs: directories list uniform and activity costs as additional and variable; these are charged separately where applicable.

Refund information

- New-student one-time charges (processing, registration, capital) are published as one-time fees and are identified in listings as non-refundable.
- Published example refund schedule (withdrawal-based) in school fee summaries: 90% of tuition & bus fee refundable if withdrawal is submitted by the day before the start of school; 50% refundable if withdrawal occurs within two weeks after the start of school; 10% refundable after two weeks up to the third quarter; no refund in the fourth quarter. The published notes also state that no refund will be made for tuition paid in multiple installments.

Fee payment options

- Tuition is shown as split between a USD-denominated portion and a KRW-denominated portion; invoices list both currencies. Expect to pay the USD portion in U.S. dollars and the KRW portion in Korean won as invoiced.
- Direct bank/wire transfer is the commonly used payment mechanism for international-school tuition in Seoul directories and fee summaries; the school's published fee breakdowns reflect multi-currency invoicing that is typically settled via the finance office using the bank details on the invoice. Installment or card-payment options (where available) are governed by the school's payment terms and may carry specific conditions.

Summary of the principal fees to expect at enrolment

- Processing fee: KRW 200,000.
- Registration fee: KRW 400,000.
- Capital fee (one-time): KRW 3,000,000.
- Annual tuition: combination of USD 5,000 (USD portion) + KRW (varies by level: commonly KRW 12,000,000–KRW 16,000,000 depending on grade). Example annual totals (combined, after conversion) are published in the approximate ranges of KRW 21,269,093 to KRW 24,269,093 depending on grade.
