First-year (initial enrolment) total example

- Example shown for a Two‑Year‑Old (Nursery 2) first year: One-time and annual charges combined total THB 306,300 for the first year (this example itemises application fee, entrance fee, development fee, deposit, annual general fees, and annual tuition).

Billing schedule and payment terms

- One-time fees (application, entrance/registration, development fee, deposit where shown) are payable at application/acceptance/enrolment as specified in the school's published fee listings. Annual items (tuition, general fees) are billed on an annual basis in the published schedules.
- The school's site links to the RenWeb/FACTS parent portal for account and billing management, and billing is managed through that system for many international schools; payment plans (annual, instalment or monthly plans) and automated drafts are usually handled through RenWeb/FACTS where used. Credit/debit card payments and bank drafts are supported by the FACTS/RenWeb payment platform; card payments commonly incur a processing surcharge.

Boarding fees

- No boarding fee schedule is published for Korat Adventist International School. The school's public listings do not present boarding accommodation or boarding fees; therefore boarding is not applicable based on available public information.

Other costs and typical additional charges

- Annual general / activity / materials fees: THB 27,800 (example line-item in the published first‑year breakdown).
- Uniforms, textbooks, extra‑curricular activities, school trips/camps, transportation (school bus), and meal plans are commonly charged in addition to tuition; specific values for uniforms, lunches or transport were not published in a single comprehensive fee schedule for this school. The published first‑year example shows separate one‑time charges plus annual general fees and tuition.

Refund information

- In the published fee breakdown used in public listings, the development fee and the deposit are explicitly indicated as refundable. Broader refund terms (refund deadlines, prorating, refunds after term start, or refund processing conditions) are not included in the publicly available fee summary used here.

Fee payment options

- Billing and payments are handled through the RenWeb/FACTS system as linked from the school's site; typical payment methods through FACTS/RenWeb include bank draft/transfer (no processing fee) and major credit/debit cards (card transactions typically incur a processing fee). Schools using FACTS also commonly allow annual, installment (termly/half‑yearly) or monthly payment plans and automatic drafts. Paper payments or bank transfer receipts are also a standard option where indicated by school finance offices for schools that use FACTS/RenWeb.

Summary of source coverage and missing items

- Public, third‑party fee listings provide the numeric annual totals and a detailed example of first‑year one‑time charges used above; those listings show annual totals by grade and flag which one‑time items are refundable.
- The school's public pages link to RenWeb/FACTS for billing, but the official Korat Adventist International School site does not publish a complete, itemised term‑by‑term fee schedule, nor detailed billing dates, explicit term counts, or a full refund policy text in a single downloadable fee schedule. Where a per‑term figure is required, the per‑term amounts above were computed by dividing published annual totals by three (explicitly stated as an arithmetic inference).

If you need these figures presented in a different format or currency, or require a verbatim copy of a published fee sheet, those can be prepared from the public fee listings cited here.

Public information indicates KAIS has 10+ nationalities represented; the student population is around 200. The most common nationality and the local-to-international ratio are not published.
