Fees

Annual tuition at Liberty American School ranges from GHS 90,000 for 2026/27.

Application and enrolment fees
- No single, itemised application or enrolment fee schedule is published for general public access. Parents should expect a one-time admission/registration charge is commonly applied by comparable private international schools in Ghana; however a specific, universally stated Liberty American School application amount is not publicly listed.

Tuition fees (by year group / term / year)
- Liberty American School operates an American-style K–12 programme but does not publish a full grade-by-grade fee table in a publicly accessible itemised form.
- Independent Ghanaian education guides and news listings consistently cite total tuition at Liberty American School in the region of GH¢30,000. Some local reports refer to that figure as an annual amount; other listings describe similarly sized amounts without clearly specifying whether the figure is termly or yearly. Treat GH¢30,000 as a widely reported indicative figure rather than an official grade-by-grade schedule.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school does not publish a publicly available, detailed billing schedule (for example: deposit amount, termly instalment dates, deadlines, or late-payment penalties). Any formal billing schedule and payment terms (deposit on acceptance, termly invoices, payment deadlines) are provided directly to enrolling families as part of the admissions and enrolment documentation.

Boarding fees (where applicable)
- Liberty American School is listed as offering both day and boarding options. A separate boarding fee is therefore applicable for boarders, but no boarding-fee tariff or boarding-level breakdown is published in a publicly accessible itemised schedule.

Other costs and typical additional fees
- There is no publicly published, exhaustive list showing uniform costs, bus/transport charges, lunch/meal plans, exam or external testing fees, extracurricular activity fees, or textbook/curriculum charges. Parents should budget for common additional school costs that private international schools typically charge (uniforms, transport, meals, exam or registration supplements, extra‑curricular activity fees), but specific amounts for Liberty American School are not available in a public itemised form.

Refund information
- There is no publicly posted, itemised refund policy (for example: refund of deposits on withdrawal, prorated tuition refunds, or conditions for non-refundable fees). Any formal refund or withdrawal terms are provided in the school's enrolment contract and admissions paperwork.

Fee payment options
- No publicly posted, definitive list of accepted payment methods (for example: specific credit card processing, in-person cash, or named bank-account details for bank transfer) is available in an itemised format. Parents should expect standard private-school payment channels (bank transfer and school-directed payment methods) to be used; the precise accepted methods and account details are supplied by the school at enrolment.

Summary of findings and gaps
- A specific, grade-by-grade fee schedule for the 2026/27 academic year is not published in an itemised form for public access. Multiple Ghanaian education listings and news summaries report a commonly cited tuition figure around GH¢30,000, but those accounts do not consistently state whether that figure is termly or annual and do not supply grade-level, boarding, or other itemised breakdowns. Boarding is offered, but boarding tariffs are not publicly detailed. Billing schedule, refund policy, and accepted payment-method details are not publicly itemised and are provided directly to parents during admissions/enrolment.
