Tuition and school costs
Tuition and one-time charges
The annual 2026-2027 fee has two payable components. KRW plus USD means both amounts are due; neither column is the complete tuition price. The school says the 2027-2028 schedule will be available in January 2027.
| Division | Annual KRW component | Annual USD component |
|---|---|---|
| Village School | 28,590,000 | 16,230 |
| Middle School | 30,770,000 | 17,420 |
| Upper School | 33,670,000 | 19,090 |
- Application: KRW 400,000 OR USD 300, rather than both currencies.
- New-student matriculation: KRW 1,000,000. Capital development: KRW 5,000,000.
- The KRW 3,000,000 enrollment/re-enrollment amount is part of tuition. Do not add it twice to the annual budget.
- Tuition includes field trips and outdoor education. Meals, bus use, technology and selected additional programmes can require separate spending.
Scholarships and fee support
Funding, transport and family planning
A current scholarship amount or financial-aid entitlement has not been verified for this profile. Ask admissions for any available assistance, its eligibility rules and renewal terms; do not subtract an assumed award from tuition.
For a family considering a daily journey from Seoul or Pangyo, compare the actual route and travel time before paying optional bus charges. The published 2026-2027 bus figure for those areas is KRW 6,300,000 annually. Confirm pickup availability and meal/technology costs for the selected grade.
Required documents
Documents and grade-specific evidence
- Prepare student and parent passport pages, the applicable family/residence evidence, parent questionnaire and educational background information.
- Pre-K - Grade 1 applicants need a short play video. School reports and confidential teacher references depend on grade.
- For Grades 10-12, complete high-school transcripts must come directly from the previous school.
- Grades 2-5 use MAP results; Grades 6-12 can use the permitted ISEE, SSAT or MAP route. Check direct-submission and writing-sample rules in the official checklist.
- Do not arrange automatic notarisation of every non-English report: the application guide says translation or notarisation may be requested where needed.
