Fee payment options and how payments are presented

- The online application and enrollment process uses the school's application system (Ravenna) and asks applicants to choose a form of payment when submitting the application/enrollment; public fee materials list the available payment-plan schedules but do not specify which payment instruments (credit card, ACH/bank transfer, check) are accepted. Families are instructed to select a payment method during the application/enrollment steps. For application submission, the application fee must be paid as part of a complete application.

Key contact for fee and billing questions

- Admissions and tuition-assistance contact: admissions@ebgis.org. Phone: 510.380.0301.

Note on public materials reviewed: the school's published materials provide annual tuition amounts, required fees, payment-plan dates and the requirement for tuition insurance, but do not list a specific public breakdown of accepted payment instruments (for example, explicit confirmation of credit card, bank transfer/ACH, or check). The application system asks applicants to choose a form of payment during submission; final payment-instrument options are provided during the application/enrollment process.
