Fees
Application fees

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

- Tuition amounts by year group, and any per-term or annual tuition schedules, are not published. There are no publicly posted per-year or per-term tuition figures for the Vilnius campus.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- No public billing schedule, instalment plan, or standard payment-terms (due dates, penalties, etc.) is published for the Vilnius campus. The school lists an administrative self-service portal for administration tasks that may be used for enrolment or account management, but specific billing terms are not published.

Boarding fees (if applicable)

- The school does not publish any boarding programme or boarding fees for the Vilnius campus. No boarding-related fees or accommodation options are listed.

Other costs or fees (meals, uniforms, exams, extracurriculars)

- Meal/catering arrangements are documented through catering contract PDFs for Vilnius and related branches; meal provision is a separately documented cost element. Specific meal prices appear in catering contract documents rather than as part of a published tuition schedule.

Practical notes for a parent using these facts

- Because no tuition, boarding, application, refund, or payment-method details are published, expect that precise fee figures and formal billing terms will be provided directly by the school at enquiry or during registration rather than published as a public fee schedule. The school publishes catering contracts and contact details for campuses in Vilnius, which indicates meal charges are separately arranged.

Brief summary of search and insufficiency

- Public site pages and the Documents section include catering-contract PDFs and campus contact information, but no public tuition schedule, per-year or per-term fees, application fees, boarding fees, refund policy, or explicit payment-method list was found for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years.
