Fees
Application fees

- No specific application or one‑time admission fee amount is publicly accessible in the school's published fee schedule that could be retrieved for the 2026/27 (or 2025/26) academic year. The school maintains a dedicated School Fees document that details class‑by‑class charges, but the numeric fee table was not accessible in this session.

Tuition fees by school year (per term / per year)

- The school publishes a detailed, class‑by‑class fee schedule that lists tuition charges by year group and term. The exact per‑term and per‑year numeric amounts for each year group were not accessible from the published fee document during this retrieval. Parents should note that the fee schedule exists and is the authoritative listing for tuition amounts.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Fees are due by the 15th day of the current month; if the 15th falls on a scheduled holiday, fees must be paid before that date.

- If monthly fees are paid after the 15th of the current month, a late payment fine of Tk. 500 plus VAT is applied. If fees are paid in the next calendar month, a late payment fine of Tk. 1,000 plus VAT is applied.

- The school requires that the school fees of two months be paid together every alternate month (i.e., bi‑monthly collection in practice). Parents are also requested to pay advance tuition fees by the 15th of each month.

- Extra charges incurred when paying through an online payment gateway are charged to the student/parent. Payment is not refundable but is adjustable with any other payment.

Boarding fees (if applicable)

- The school operates multiple urban day campuses and does not list boarding/hostel services among its campus offerings; there are no published boarding fee entries in the accessible campus documentation. Therefore boarding fees are not applicable.

Other recurring or one‑off costs (uniform, books, exams, transport, etc.)

- The school maintains separate published documents for School Uniform and Book List, indicating that uniform and book costs apply. Specific price amounts for uniform, books, transport, exam registration, or other ancillary items were not accessible in the publicly listed fee document during this retrieval.

Refund and adjustment policy

- Payments are not refundable; however, payments are adjustable against other outstanding payments. Late‑payment fines and VAT are applied as noted under payment terms.

Fee payment options and bank details

- Acceptable electronic/mobile payment methods include OK Wallet, bKash (Pay Bill under Educational Institution → ACADEMIA), Nagad (Bill pay → ACADEMIA / 1037), Rocket/Nexus (Bill pay → Other → ACADEMIA / 2728), and online card payment via VISA/MASTERCARD. Parents must supply the student ID on each online payment.

- Bank account numbers provided for fee payments are (as published):
- DBBL A/C # 258.120.0000013 (Mohammadpur Branch)
- UCBL A/C # 0842301000000168 (Dhanmondi Branch)
- Bank Asia A/C # 06236000004 (Lalmatia Branch).

- Each campus maintains an accounts office (contact numbers and email addresses are published) to assist with payment queries. Parents should provide the student ID as payment reference.

Summary of accessibility of numeric fee amounts

- The school's published internal "School Fees" document contains the detailed numeric breakdown of application fees, per‑term tuition by year group, uniform and other ancillary charges. That document was linked from the school's published resources but the numeric fee tables were not retrievable in this session, so exact Tk amounts per term and per year group cannot be provided here.

(Notes about retrieval: the Terms & Conditions and Payment instructions—including due dates, late fines, refund/adjustment rule, and the list of accepted payment channels and bank accounts—were available and are reported above. The detailed numeric fee schedule for each year group and term is contained in the School Fees document referenced on the school's published resources, but that document's numeric table was not accessible for extraction during this session. Where numeric fee amounts were not accessible, they have not been guessed or interpolated.)
