Fees

Annual tuition at Olashore International School ranges from up to NGN 6,000,000 for 2026/27.

Application fees

- Application fee: The school requires payment of an application fee to sit the entrance examination; the exact amount is listed on the online application form and must be paid as part of the application process.

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

- Exact, itemised term and annual tuition figures by year group for the 2026/27 academic session are not published in the public fee page that is available; a formal fee schedule is issued by the school for each academic session.

- Independent market summaries (third-party listings) give approximate annual ranges for recent sessions: Day-student annual tuition is commonly reported in the range of around NGN 3,000,000–4,500,000, and full-boarding annual fees are commonly reported in the range of about NGN 6,000,000–6,800,000. Treat these figures as external estimates rather than the official, session-specific schedule.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Fees are determined annually by the school's Board of Governors. Bills are issued on the session/term schedule set by the school.

- The school allows payment of termly fees on a monthly basis when an acknowledged direct-debit instruction from the parent's bank is provided. This monthly option is available to returning students and to new students who already have siblings at the school.

- A sibling discount on tuition and boarding fees is applied automatically to the billed account when parents have more than one child enrolled.

Boarding fees

- Olashore International School operates as a full boarding school; boarding charges are a standard component of the full-boarding fee. The school places students in campus hostels and provides catering and residential care as part of boarding provision. The precise boarding fee per term / per year is part of the school's official fee schedule.

- Third‑party summaries indicate full-boarding annual totals in the general range of NGN 6,000,000–6,800,000 for recent sessions; these are estimates and not the official session schedule.

Other costs and typical additional charges

- Registration / acceptance fee: Parents are required to pay a registration or acceptance fee to confirm an offer of admission; the exact amount is provided with the offer and on the admissions documentation.

- Uniforms, stationery, personal equipment (e.g., school-provided devices where applicable), medical / wellbeing charges, examination fees (external exam entries such as IGCSE/WAEC/Cambridge/SAT where applicable), transport for visits, and extra-curricular trip costs are charged in addition to tuition/boarding as specified in the session fee schedule or the list of required items for new students. Exact itemised costs are set out in the school's session fee schedule and the new-student checklist.

Refund information

- A formal refund and cancellation policy (refund conditions, non-refundable items, and timelines) is managed through the school's fee/financial policies and is set out in the session fee schedule and admissions paperwork. The publicly visible admissions pages indicate that payment of registration and other required fees follows the fee schedule, but do not publish a session refund table on the main admissions page.

Fee payment options

- Monthly payment by direct debit (acknowledged bank instruction) is explicitly offered for termly fees under specified eligibility conditions (returning students and new students with siblings already at the school).

- Parents should expect standard institutional payment channels (school bank account transfers and school-designated payment methods) to be used; the school's accounts department provides detailed payment instructions and acceptable payment methods in the official fee schedule and billing communications.

Availability note (official schedule access and estimates)

- The school issues a formal "Latest School Fees Schedule" for each academic session. The publicly visible admissions/fees page confirms the schedule exists and describes billing/payment provisions, but the session-specific numeric fee table is provided in the school's official fee schedule and admissions pack rather than embedded as visible numbers on the main page. For practical planning, third-party market summaries provide recent annual ranges for day and boarding places as noted above; those external figures are estimates and not a substitute for the official session fee schedule.

If you need immediate transactional details

- For precise termly and yearly amounts (per year group), the exact registration/acceptance fee amount, the detailed breakdown of inclusions/exclusions (uniform, exam entries, medical, trips), the refund policy wording, and the school's current accepted payment channels, consult the school's accounts/admissions office or the school's official fee schedule issued for the 2026/27 (or 2025/26 if 2026/27 is not yet published) academic session. Contact points shown on the school information pages include the school phone numbers and accounts/admissions contacts.
