The Application Fee and the Registration Fee for new students only are one-time fees and are NON-REFUNDABLE.
The Application Fee must be paid in full at the same time as you send your application.
When a student is accepted, the Registration Fee is due in 14 days. No student will be allowed to start attending school until the Registration Fee has been paid.
A Seat Reservation Deposit of $1500, deductible from the tuition fee, has to be paid each year. The Deposit is non-refundable.
The Building Fee is an annual fee for all students. Students attending for less than twenty (20) school days will be charged fifty percent (50%) of the annual building fee.

In the case of Tuition Fee-only, two or three installment payments, as described in the Payment Options (Plan "B" or Plan "C") may be granted. Plan "C" may only be selected by private payers. Students whose fees are not paid 30 days after the installment deadline will not be allowed to attend school.
Any unpaid balance after August 1, or thereafter, 30 days from the issue date, will be subject to a processing and interest fee of 6% per annum, calculated daily.
Students whose tuition and fees have not been paid by the due date will not be allowed to attend school unless an installment payment plan has been agreed in writing.
