American Curriculum International Schools in Bogotá, Colombia

American-curriculum international schools in Bogotá typically follow a US-style K - 12 structure with instruction largely in English, while meeting Colombian requirements by teaching Spanish language and social studies in Spanish and sometimes offering the national Bachillerato alongside a US high-school diploma. Many schools offer Advanced Placement (AP) courses and electives, and some combine the American curriculum with bilingual programmes or an IB option at upper levels. Annual tuition varies by school and year group but commonly falls in the broad band of roughly COP 25 million to COP 75 million (roughly USD 6,000 - 19,000), with separate one-time enrolment (matrícula) charges and extra costs for transport, meals and exams. Admissions are usually busiest for the main August/September intake on the US calendar, though some institutions follow the Colombian February - November calendar; families relocating should check each school’s calendar and start enquiries several months before arrival.
