Fees

Application / Admission fees

- A one-time administrative/admission fee is charged for all new students registering at the school.
- Sibling admission fee scale: first child pays 100% of the admission fee; second child pays 95%; any subsequent children pay 90% of the admission fee.

Tuition fees by year group and term

- The school does not publish a public schedule of tuition amounts by year group or per term. Precise tuition figures for each year group and per-term billing are not published in the publicly available fee materials.
- Sibling tuition discount: there is a 10% tuition discount for the third and fourth child registering from the same family (all children must be in attendance at the same time).
- Full-payment incentive: families that pay school fees in a one-time cash payment up front are entitled to a 5% discount on tuition; this discount cannot be combined with other discounts. (Described as both a “Full Payment Discount” and an “Early Payment Promotion” in published policy.)

Billing schedule and payment terms

- All registration fees must be paid in full unless a separate payment plan has been formally agreed between the family and the school.
- Families that register after March 31 of the previous academic year may choose from a variety of payment plans depending on the month that registration is completed.
- A late-payment penalty of USD 25 is applied to late tuition payments.
- No official school reports or transcripts will be released until all accounts are paid in full.
- There is a 10% early-payment discount applied to families who pay tuition during the school's designated early-payment period. This is separate from the one-time full-payment 5% discount and cannot be combined with other discounts.

Boarding fees

- No boarding programme or boarding fees are published in the school's publicly available materials. The school's fee materials do not list boarding charges.

Other costs and incidental charges

- The published fee policy states the existence of an admission/administrative fee and refers generally to fee categories, but it does not publish numerical amounts for items such as uniforms, books, examination fees, meals, transport, or school supplies. Specific charges for these items are not available in the publicly posted materials.

Refund information and exceptions

- Refunds are not given under the school's stated refund policy.
- Exceptions to payment and refund policies may only be approved following a meeting with the Head of School and the Chief Executive Officer; neither admissions nor finance staff nor board members may approve exceptions.

Fee payment options

- Specific payment methods (for example, bank transfer, international transfer, credit/debit card, or cash) are not specified in the publicly available fee materials. The school's finance office contact details are provided for arranging payment and discussing available payment plans.

Brief summary of findings and limitations

- The school's published Fees & Registration materials provide clear policy rules (one-time admission fee, sibling discounts, early/full-payment discounts, USD 25 late fee, no refunds, requirement that registration fees be paid in full unless a payment plan is agreed, and that exceptions require senior-school approval). However, the numerical tuition amounts by year group, per-term figures, and specific charges for items such as uniforms, books, meals, transport, examination or boarding fees are not published and therefore cannot be listed here. Precise monetary figures for the 2026/27 academic year (or for 2025/26 if 2026/27 figures are not available) are not publicly posted and must be obtained directly from the school's finance office.

Admissions

Bring the completed form along with the documents below to the admissions office at school. Transcripts and report cards from the last two years must be provided. They must be stamped and on school letterhead. This ensures the admissions review has official records.

The photo should be a clear passport-style image suitable for identification. Include the digital photo with the application materials. Your child will need to complete an HCIS entrance exam along with an in-person interview. The entrance exam and interview assess the student's knowledge and fit for HCIS. The admissions team uses these results to inform the admissions decision. Prior to being approved for admissions, parents must read and sign a letter of agreement regarding the HCIS Parent – Student Handbook. Signing confirms understanding of the handbook's terms and expectations. The handbook governs the parent–student relationship and responsibilities.
