Fees
Application fees - No publicly published, confirmed application fee amount for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year is available. The school's admissions information includes a line that describes a non-refundable application fee (stated there as “A non-refundable application fee of 100.000 HUF” in the text found), but that figure appears as part of an admissions template and is not presented as a definitive, current fee schedule for this campus.
Tuition fees by school year (per term / per year group) - No publicly published tuition schedule showing amounts per term or per year group for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years is available. There are no confirmed per-term or per-year tuition figures published in the school's public materials.
Billing schedule and payment terms - No publicly published, detailed billing schedule or payment-term policy (for example: number of instalments, due dates, penalties for late payment) is available for 2026/27 or 2025/26. The admissions pages reference standard offer, registration and deposit steps but do not provide a publicised fee timetable or explicit payment-term table.
Boarding fees (if applicable) - No boarding programme or boarding fees are published. The school is presented as a day school for ages 3–18 and no boarding fee schedule is available.
Other costs or fees (uniform, materials, transport, extracurricular, meals, insurance, deposits, capital contributions) - No confirmed, published breakdown of additional compulsory or optional fees (uniform, transport, lunch, extracurricular activity fees, learning materials, technology fees, deposits or capital contributions) for 2026/27 or 2025/26 is publicly available. The publicly visible materials do not list amounts for these items.
Refund information - The admissions text includes a statement that an application fee is non-refundable (the text shows a non-refundable application fee in the admissions template), but there is no published, detailed refund policy for registration, tuition, deposits or other fees available in the public admissions materials reviewed.
Fee payment options (credit card, bank transfer, local currency requirements) - No publicly published list of accepted payment methods (for example: credit card, bank transfer, local-currency payment or international transfer instructions) or banking details for fee payment are available in the school's public materials. Contact details for the admissions office and an online application pathway are published, but specific payment methods and payment instructions are not published.
Brief summary of findings - A search of the school's publicly available pages — including the home page, contact and admissions/application pages — did not locate a published fee schedule or a confirmed fee table for the 2026/27 academic year (or for 2025/26). The only fee-like figures found appear within admissions template text (example: amounts shown in Hungarian Forints), which cannot be relied upon as a definitive, current fee schedule for this campus. Because no confirmed fee amounts, payment schedules, boarding fees or ancillary-fee breakdowns are publicly posted, specific numeric fee details cannot be provided here.
