Fees

Application fees

- There are no application fees to apply for entry to the Experimental General Lyceum of the University of Macedonia for the 2026/27 academic year. Admission to experimental (Πειραματικά) schools is managed as a public‑school process (lottery/selection procedures) rather than by payment of an application charge.

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

- There are no tuition fees for any year group (Aʹ, Bʹ, or Gʹ Lyceum) for the 2026/27 academic year. The school is a public experimental general lyceum and does not charge annual or term tuition to families. No school‑wide per‑term or per‑year tuition schedule applies.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Because there is no tuition, there is no regular billing schedule or term invoicing for tuition. When optional paid activities occur (for example, educational excursions or externally provided services), those activities are billed and collected on an activity‑by‑activity basis under the terms set by the school's contract with the external provider. Payment timing, instalment options, and penalties or late fees for optional activities are determined by the specific activity contract or the external provider.

Boarding fees (where applicable)

- Boarding is not applicable. The Experimental General Lyceum of the University of Macedonia operates as a day secondary school and there is no boarding programme or boarding charges for families.

Other costs and fees (uniforms, materials, trips, IB, extracurriculars, parents' association contributions)

- No mandatory school uniform fee is published as a school‑wide charge. Families are responsible for routine personal school supplies, course materials, and any optional resources required by specific subjects or projects.

- Educational excursions and study trips are organised under formal school contracts with travel agencies; participants are normally required to cover the cost of those trips. Such trips are procured by the school through a formal selection process and the travel agency contract governs the price and payment terms for each excursion. Expect separate invoices or payment requests for each trip.

- From the 2026/27 school year the school will offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP) in public IB sections; IB programme participation can bring additional, program‑specific costs (for example, registration and exam fees charged by the International Baccalaureate Organization or costs for IB‑specific materials). Any IB‑related candidate/examination charges and how they are allocated between the school and families are handled separately from public tuition and will be set according to the school's IB arrangements and the IBO's fee structure.

- The Parents and Guardians Association exists and may organise voluntary fundraising or collections for extracurricular activities; such voluntary contributions are separate from tuition and are managed at the association or activity level.

Refund information

- There is no tuition to refund. For paid optional activities (for example, school trips or externally contracted programmes), refund eligibility and the refund procedure are governed by the relevant contract with the external provider (travel agency or vendor) and by applicable public procurement and school regulations. Parents charged for an activity should consult the activity's payment terms and the contract that accompanies the activity announcement for the refund/cancellation policy.

Fee payment options

- The school does not operate a regular tuition‑billing system; when fees are required for optional activities they are collected under the payment methods specified in each activity's contract or invoice. Typical arrangements for externally supplied services (such as travel agencies used for school trips) are to accept payments to the vendor according to that vendor's accepted methods (bank transfer, card, or other vendor‑specified methods), and the activity announcement or invoice will state acceptable payment channels. The specific payment methods for any charge will be set out in the activity documentation or contract.

Summary statement for 2026/27

- For the 2026/27 academic year the Experimental General Lyceum of the University of Macedonia charges no application or tuition fees and has no boarding charges. Paid costs that may occur during the year are limited to optional items (educational trips, IB‑related exam/registration costs, subject materials or extracurricular activity fees) and are invoiced or collected separately under the terms of each activity or external provider contract.
