Application and entrance fees
- The admission exam application fee is 500 TL (Turkish Lira).
- For applicants to intermediate grade levels who qualify for a second-stage assessment, a second-stage fee of 1,500 TL is required. Payment is made via the school's online payment page after submitting the application.
Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)
- The school does not publish a public schedule of tuition amounts per year group or per term for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years on its publicly available admissions materials and school brochures. Exact tuition figures by grade and the per-term breakdown are not listed in the school's published materials.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school's published admissions materials show the admission application is paid at the time of application via an online payment page.
- A billing schedule and standard payment terms for tuition (for example: number of installments, due dates, late-payment penalties) are not published in the school's public materials. Specific billing cycles and tuition due dates are not available in the publicly posted documents.
- For extracurricular workshops and camps, the school's event pages state how and when to pay and include explicit non-refundable terms for those program fees (see examples under Other costs).
Boarding fees (if applicable)
- NÛN Schools operates on-campus student boarding and provides detailed descriptions of boarding life, facilities, meals and pastoral arrangements. A monetary boarding fee schedule (monthly, termly or annual boarding fees, deposit amounts) is not published in the school's publicly posted boarding brochure or other public documents.
Other costs and fees (examples and known items)
- The school runs after-school workshops, seasonal camps and extracurricular atölye (workshop) programs that carry separate fees. Sample published program fees include: 10,000 TL for certain 12‑week children's workshops; 8,000 TL for a 6‑week Mathematics Philosophy workshop; 5,000 TL and 4,000 TL for other multi‑week art or activity workshops. These workshop and camp fees are charged separately from tuition.
- Workshop and camp payments are handled via the application/form process; participants are directed to payment forms or provided with bank-account details after registration. Workshop/camp payments are explicitly stated as non‑refundable on the program pages.
- The school describes student services such as meals in the boarding program and club/atölye activities, but the school's published materials do not list amounts for items such as uniforms, textbooks, transport, instrument rentals, exam fees, or other recurring ancillary charges. No uniform price list, book fee schedule, or similar ancillary-fee table is published in the publicly available materials.
Refund information
- For workshops and extracurricular atölye programs, the published pages state that payments for those programs are non‑refundable.
- A published refund policy for tuition, boarding fees, deposits or other core school fees (including how refunds are calculated and under which circumstances a refund is issued) is not available in the school's publicly posted admission or policy documents.
Fee payment options
- The admission application fee is paid via the school's online payment page following submission of the application.
- Workshop and camp pages instruct applicants to complete the registration form and then make payment to bank-account details sent to registrants; these pages therefore show that bank transfer / payment to a provided account is used for those programs.
- The school's public pages do not publish a comprehensive list of accepted payment methods for core tuition and boarding (for example: which credit cards are accepted, whether direct debit/standing order is accepted, or whether installment-by-credit-card options are available).
Brief summary of findings and missing public details
- Published, itemised figures that a parent would typically expect (grade‑by‑grade tuition amounts, per‑term fees, annual tuition totals per year group, boarding fee amounts, deposit schedules, tuition refund formulas and a full published billing calendar) are not included in the school's publicly posted admissions pages, school brochures, or the boarding brochure. The only specific fee amounts published openly are the admission exam application fee (500 TL), the intermediate second‑stage fee (1,500 TL when required) and individual extracurricular/camp/workshop fees with explicit non‑refundability.
If you require exact tuition and boarding fee figures broken down by year group and by term for the 2026/27 academic year (or the 2025/26 year where 2026/27 figures are not published), the school's published public materials do not include those figures and the amounts are therefore not available in the public documents reviewed above.

Private NÛN Schools, run by the NÛN Education and Culture Foundation in Turkey, serve students aged 3 to 18 and are affiliated with the Ministry of National Education. The curriculum embraces the International Baccalaureate across the Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP), and Diploma Programme (DP), with the PYP authorized and the DP program since March 2017. PYP units run in six-week modules and culminate in mini exhibitions that showcase inquiry-led learning. Differentiation and inquiry-based approaches underpin teaching, and classrooms are designed for about 20 students to support collaboration. The campuses feature well-stocked libraries, laboratories, observatories, and flexible spaces; an ecology lab and botanical garden reinforce hands-on science. Outdoor spaces, a forested campus, and a sustainable living program extend learning beyond the classroom. NÛN emphasizes experiential learning, outdoor education, and community service through activities like NÛN Volunteers and thematic programs such as Sefer-i NÛN and Inspiring Guests.
