Fees
Application fees
- No specific application or registration fee amount is published online for Greenville International School. The admissions process is handled by the school's admissions office and places are limited.

Tuition fees by year group / payment frequency
- The school offers tuition structured as monthly payments over a 10-month schedule for its early years (the site describes “Colegiatura a 10 meses”). Specific numeric tuition amounts per year group (Pre‑kinder, Kinder, Primary, Secondary, Bachillerato) are not published on available public pages.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition is billed on a monthly schedule (a 10‑month payment plan is used for tuition). The school calendar identifies specific monthly payment deadlines (marked as "Último día de pago de colegiatura"), indicating parents are expected to pay on a monthly timetable. Exact due dates and any late‑payment penalties are not published on the publicly available pages.

Boarding fees
- Greenville International School operates as a day school; no boarding program or boarding fees are published or described in the school information available.

Other costs and typical extras
- The school explicitly lists several additional chargeable services without amounts: extension of hours (after‑school extension 13:00–14:00), psychopedagogical support, and other ancillary services. Pre‑kinder notes that the extension of hours carries an extra cost and that medical services and school insurance are provided for students in that level. No published amounts are given for uniforms, books, extracurricular activities, transportation, or exam/IB programme fees on the public pages examined.

Refund information
- No public refund, cancellation, or fee‑credit policy (including for deposits or early withdrawals) is available on the school pages and fee‑related materials accessible publicly. No published statements about refundable/non‑refundable deposits or tuition refunds were found.

Fee payment options
- Specific accepted payment methods (credit card, bank transfer/SPEI, cash, direct debit or online payment platform) are not published on the school pages reviewed. The school's admissions and administrative office handles fee billing and payment arrangements.

Administrative / contact details relevant to fees
- Admissions and billing are handled from the school office in Villahermosa, Tabasco. Contact details published for administrative enquiries are: Prolongación Av. Paseo Usumacinta No. 2122, Lázaro Cárdenas 2da. sección, Villahermosa, Tabasco; phone [+52] 993 310 8060 and [+52] 993 160 3777; email info@greenville.edu.mx. Office hours are Monday–Friday 08:00–15:00. These contacts are the appropriate channel to obtain exact numeric tuition amounts, payment schedules, and the school's formal refund and payment‑method policies.

Summary of findings and limits in published information:
- Public school pages and level pages describe the admissions process, a 10‑month tuition payment structure, and several chargeable ancillary services, but they do not publish any numeric fee amounts, detailed per‑grade tuition figures, precise billing dates and penalties, payment‑method specifications, boarding fees, or refund policy text. The publicly available content is therefore insufficient to produce a complete, itemized fee schedule by year group, per term amounts, or exact payment‑method details for the 2026/27 academic year (or 2025/26). For exact numeric tuition amounts, billing calendar, refund rules, and accepted payment methods, contact the school's admissions or finance office using the contact details provided above.
