- The school uses the TMS (TrackMySchool) parent/payment platform for fee payments.
- In-person fee handling is supported at the school (the admission/receipt form includes a cashier/receipt section).

Application / registration fees
- The school's admission/registration form includes a field for a Registration / Application Fee, but a fixed public amount for that fee is not published in the school materials available online.

Boarding fees
- Boarding / hostel provision is not listed in the school materials. AMSB operates as a day school (transport is offered); no boarding fees are published.

Transport (bus) fees and arrangements
- School transport is offered (the admission form asks whether the parent wants to use school transport and includes a Bus Fee field). Specific bus-route prices are not published in the publicly available admission materials.

Other costs and recurring charges
- Textbooks / stationery: the school publishes class-by-class booklists; the cost of books and supplies is charged separately.

Refunds and withdrawal
- No dedicated public refund policy or fixed refund scale (for example, admission deposit refunds or tuition refunds on withdrawal) is published in the school documents available online.

- Certain line-item amounts commonly found on school fee schedules (the specific registration/application fee amount, detailed bus-route pricing, uniform price list, and an explicit published refund schedule) are not present in the school's publicly available admission materials; those items are therefore not included as numeric values above.
