Billing schedule and payment terms

- Families choose one of these payment plans when submitting an enrollment contract (payment collection is managed through the FACTS Tuition Management platform; all families must set up a FACTS account):
- Plan A — One full payment: 100% of tuition (minus the enrollment deposit credit) due on or before June 19, 2026. A 1% tuition discount applies when full payment is received by that date (this tuition discount does not apply to families on financial aid and does not apply to other fees).
- Plan B — Two payments: 60% of tuition (minus the enrollment deposit credit) due on or before June 19, 2026; remaining 40% (minus the enrollment deposit credit) due on or before December 1, 2026.
- Plan C — Ten monthly installments: Ten equal monthly payments (each 10% of tuition and fees) due monthly from May 15, 2026 through February 15, 2027. The enrollment deposit is credited toward the last installment. A processing surcharge of USD 200 is charged with the first installment.
- The full terms and conditions of payment are set out in the enrollment contract; enrollment contracts become fully binding on the date specified in the admissions/enrollment materials. Contact information for Student Billing is provided on billing materials.

Payment methods and processing

- Tuition payments are processed through FACTS Tuition Management; every family is required to create a FACTS account for billing and payments. Payment for optional services and charitable contributions may also be accepted by credit card. Specific payment method options available in FACTS (ACH/Bank transfer, credit card, and other methods supported by the FACTS platform) are managed through the FACTS account.

Boarding

- Washington International School operates as an independent day school; boarding is not offered.

Uniform and dress costs

- There is no general school uniform requirement; some school traditions or event‑specific dress expectations exist (for example, senior class dress traditions on certain days). Families should plan for occasional event‑specific wardrobe items but a general uniform purchase is not required.

Refunds and tuition‑protection options

- The School uses an optional Tuition Refund Plan (TRP) to protect the family's tuition obligation in the event of a covered withdrawal, dismissal, or extended medical absence. The student's financial obligation to the School remains for full annual tuition as stated in the enrollment contract; the TRP, if purchased, provides insurance benefits payable to the School under the policy's terms for covered reasons. Typical TRP benefit examples include payment of a percentage of unused insured fees for medical withdrawals, non‑medical withdrawals after a required minimum attendance period, and dismissals; specific benefit percentages, exclusions, coverage effective dates, enrollment deadlines, and claim procedures are set out in the TRP policy and enrollment materials. The TRP premium cost and enrollment instructions are provided with enrollment materials; written election of the plan and premium payment are required by the plan's stated deadlines.

Other notes on charges and how amounts are billed

- Many ancillary programs and services (optional trips, camps, device purchases, outside tutor fees for independent language study, certain long‑distance trips, and some special events) are billed separately and may require advance payment prior to participation. Capital Levy and other one‑time charges for newly enrolled students are billed at enrollment. Some recurring services (bus service, early arrival/extended day care, after‑school supervision) are registered and billed by term or semester as specified. Late pick‑up and drop‑in fees apply at published rates.

Contact for billing questions

- The Student Billing office contact number is provided in billing materials for account questions and clarifications. Tuition and payment enrollment is managed through the FACTS platform.

It offers the IB program from the Primary Years (PYP) through the Diploma (DP) for grades 11–12, with externally graded exams.

The school earns LabelFrancÉducation accreditation for high-quality French bilingual education and supports continued study through French or Spanish as Additional Languages. The Primary School includes a library with books in English, French, and Spanish, and the Lasseron Design Lab. The Tregaron Campus houses Middle and Upper Schools; Le Centre Brown, a science-centric facility, is under construction to LEED Gold standards and expected to open in 2025.
