Detailed billing schedule and payment terms (per published payment plans)

- General payment handling and VAT:
- VAT is applied at 10%; any change to VAT is passed through to fees. Installment and total figures shown above reflect the published base amounts and VAT where indicated.

- Bank collection and installment system:
- Tuition and installment payments are collected through Türk Ekonomi Bankası (TEB), Harbiye branch, under a bank/credit protocol. For families paying by installment, the bank's credit system (KMH) is used and opening the school account at the bank is required. IBAN for the school account is published with the payment instructions.

- Common payment-plan formats (examples as published for 2025–2026):
- Option A (9 equal instalments after an initial deposit):
- Deposit equals one equal installment (amount varies by year group); then nine equal monthly installments on fixed dates. Example published dates for many year groups: 14 Jul 2025 (or registration), then monthly dates through March/April 2026. Exact deposit and installment amounts differ by year group (see year-group lines above and detailed schedules).
- Option B (fewer, larger instalments):
- A larger deposit is taken at registration and the remainder is split into five larger instalments on specific dates across the academic year (example published dates: Aug 15, Oct 10, Dec 12, Feb 12, Apr 9, 2025–2026 schedule). Exact amounts are published per year group.

Other costs and extras (not included in tuition)

- The published information explicitly states that tuition does not include uniform, books, computer, transport (servis), meals (yemek), summer school, school trips or other optional services. Families should budget separately for these items.

Refund and cancellation rules

- The school refers to the Ministry of National Education (MEB) regulation governing refunds. The published policy for 2025–2026 states:
- The registration deposit (peşinat) amount is handled according to MEB rules; a specific non-refundable portion is set in the payment terms (for example, the published guidance states that an amount of TRY 110,000 is retained and the remainder refunded if a registration is cancelled before the academic year begins under the stated conditions).
- If a student leaves after the academic year has started, refunds are calculated under the MEB rule: the school retains 10% of the annual fee and refunds the remainder pro rata for days not attended, subject to the published calculation method. Exact retained amounts and refund timing are published in the registration/payment terms for the year group.

Fee payment options and methods

- Published payment mechanisms and options:
- Payments are collected through TEB (Türk Ekonomi Bankası), Harbiye branch; the school publishes the branch contacts and the school IBAN for bank transfers and deposits. Installment payers are enrolled through the bank's credit (KMH) system.
- For the Preparation class (Hazırlık) the school explicitly states that credit‑card payments are not accepted for tuition collection under the bank protocol; the primary method is bank account-based collection. Similar bank-based arrangements and IBANs are published for other year groups.

Summary notes for parents (factual, concise)

- Annual tuition by year is published as base fee + 10% VAT, with a cash (peşin) discounted total shown for each year group (Preparation through Grade 12).
