(Annual tuition figures and the registration-period schedule above are published by the school for the 2026–2027 academic year.)

Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school's published schedule shows multiple registration windows (e.g., 24–31 March; 1–30 April; 1–31 May; 1–30 June; 1–31 July; 1–31 August; 1–4 September) with different annual-fee amounts depending on the date of registration and the payment method selected. All listed annual amounts include 10% VAT.
- Payment methods accepted (published options): bank transfer (Havale/EFT), credit card (single payment), education loan (Akbank). Installment options include a Vakıfbank VINOV 12-month interest-free plan (available for registrations completed by 30 June 2026 for the school's special arrangement), credit-card instalments (2 installments option) and the Taksitli Eğitim Sistemi (TEST) option (example: 1 down payment + 3 instalments). The school notes banks' installment offerings and economic/regulatory changes may affect payment terms.

Boarding fees
- Boarding is not provided at Üsküdar American Academy; the school indicates there is no boarding. Therefore no boarding fees are published.

Other costs and incidental fees
- Uniforms: the school publishes a uniform policy (permitted colors and garment types) but does not publish a fixed uniform price on the uniform information page. Any uniform purchase costs are not itemised in the published uniform guidance.
- Transport (school bus), meals, books, exam fees and optional activities: the school's published materials mention these services in various documents (and some bursary documents reference coverage of transport, books and meals for scholarship recipients), but specific, itemised public prices for transport, meal plans or textbooks are not published alongside the 2026–2027 annual tuition schedule.

Refund information
- Refunds follow the rules set out in the school's registration guidance and the applicable Turkish regulation referenced in that guidance: if the student withdraws before the school year starts (for schools that determine fees annually), the school returns the paid annual fee less a retained amount equal to 10% of the annual fee; if withdrawal is after the academic year has begun, the refund amount is calculated by subtracting the 10% retained portion and the pro-rated amount for days the student attended, in accordance with the stated regulation. The school's registration guide and related documentation set out these refund rules.

Fee payment options (practical methods accepted)
- Bank transfer (Havale / EFT).
- Credit card (single payment and, where offered, bank/card instalment plans).
- Education loan (Akbank is listed as an education-credit partner).
- Vakıfbank VINOV campus payment system for interest-free 12-month instalments (special arrangement for registrations completed by a specified date).

Note: the figures and payment options above are taken from the school's published 2026–2027 fee schedule and registration documentation and reflect the school's published annual tuition amounts, the registration-period pricing matrix and the payment-term options for those academic-year enrolments.
