Tuition fees by year group (per-term / per-year detail)

- Published, grade-specific per-term or per-year tuition schedules for the 2026/27 academic year are not available publicly. The only clearly quantified tuition amount publicly shown in school communications is the ETB 246,000 tuition component included in the ETB 290,000 re-application package for archived students. Use the ETB 246,000 figure as an explicit tuition example where a stated tuition figure exists.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Payment timing and formal billing cycles are set by the school; examples from school communications show firm payment deadlines for particular fees (for example, an entrance-exam deposit deadline communicated to parents). Parents are required to make bank deposits and to present deposit slips to Admissions by the stated deadline for the charge being collected. Specific term-by-term due dates or multi‑installment billing schedules are not published in the publicly available fee communications.

Boarding fees (if applicable)

- No boarding program or boarding fees are indicated in the school's public information. The school operates as a day school in its published listings.

- Transcript / official document fee: ETB 200 for official transcript/student copy requests (payment in advance required for collection).

Refund information

- No standardized, publicly posted tuition‑refund schedule is provided in the school's publicly circulated fee notices; specific refund terms for a particular charge should be confirmed at the time of payment with the school's finance/admissions office. Example communications do set explicit payment deadlines for specific charges and reference those deadlines to confirm payment; no universal refund table for tuition or deposits is provided in the public fee communications.

Fee payment options

- Bank deposit / bank transfer to a school account (example: Birhan Bank account instructions used for entrance exam/application fee payments). Parents are required to bring or submit proof of the deposit (deposit slip) to the Admissions Office.

- In-person payments and receipts: several item notices instruct payment submission and presentation of payment receipt in person. Credit-card, online card-payment gateways, or other electronic payment methods are not referenced in the school's public fee notices.
