Fees
Application fees

No public application or registration fee amounts are published in the school's publicly accessible materials; the official fee schedule that would list any application or registration charges is available only within the institution's protected "Políticas y Reglamentos" portal and requires an institutional login.

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

Full, itemized tuition amounts by level (per term and per year group) are not publicly posted in the school's openly accessible pages. The school's announced “Colegiaturas” information directs families to the protected Policies and Regulations area where the detailed breakdown is maintained, so specific per-term and per-year numerical values cannot be provided from public materials.

Billing schedule and payment terms

Billing schedules (monthly/termly/annual options), billing dates, due dates, late-payment penalties and formal payment-terms are contained in the school's Policies and Regulations document held in a protected portal; these billing and payment-term details are not available in publicly viewable pages.

Boarding fees (if applicable)

The school operates as a day school; there are no boarding facilities and therefore no boarding fees apply.

Other costs and fees (uniforms, books, materials, extracurriculars, transport, insurance, etc.)

Specific charges for uniforms, textbooks, materials, extra-curricular activities, transportation, school insurance, registration of materials or similar ancillary fees are not published in the publicly available content. These additional costs are listed and quantified in the institution's protected policies and fee documents, which are not openly accessible.

Refund information

Formal refund, withdrawal and cancellation rules (including deadlines and any applicable refund percentages) are defined in the school's Policies and Regulations materials; the publicly accessible pages do not publish those refund terms.

Fee payment options (credit card, bank transfer, cash, installment plans, discounts)

Specific accepted payment methods (credit/debit card, bank transfers, online payments, installment plan details) and any prompt-payment or annual-payment discounts are itemized in the protected policies and fee schedule. That information is not available on the public pages.

Summary of findings (brief)

A publicly posted announcement titled “Colegiaturas 2024-2025” states that the detailed fee schedule and related policies are hosted in the school's protected Policies and Regulations portal, requiring an institutional login for access. Because the full fee schedule is maintained behind that protected area, no specific numeric amounts for application fees, tuition by year/term, billing schedule, ancillary fees, refund rules or payment-method details are available from the school's publicly viewable materials.
