Fees
Annual tuition at British International School of Armenia ranges from AMD 900,000 to AMD 1,560,000 for 2026/27.
Application fees - For 2026 admissions the school lists application fees that are paired with the published monthly tuition tiers: 20,000 AMD for the lower tuition tiers and 30,000 AMD for the higher tuition tiers. - The High School admissions information separately states a non‑refundable application fee of 15,000 AMD for local applicants and 20,000 AMD for international applicants.
Published tuition (monthly) for 2026 - 75,000 AMD per month. - 95,000 AMD per month. - 130,000 AMD per month. - 170,000 AMD per month. - 280,000 AMD per month.
Tuition by term and by year group - The school publishes the monthly tuition amounts above for 2026 but does not label those amounts on the published materials with specific year‑group names or with a per‑term or per‑academic‑year total. The values above therefore must be used as the school's published monthly tuition rates. - Per‑term and per‑year totals are not specified on the published materials. If you require per‑term or per‑year totals for your database, calculate them from the published monthly amount using the number of billing months your database uses for an academic year (the school's materials do not specify the number of charged months per academic year).
Billing schedule and payment terms - The published admissions and program pages list application steps and fees but do not publish a detailed billing schedule (term dates, number of instalments per year, penalty/late fee terms, or exact payment deadlines) in the available materials. Parents should therefore treat the tuition figures above as published monthly rates; specific billing cycle, instalment, or discount terms are not published in the available admissions or program pages.
Boarding fees - No boarding program or boarding fees are published in the available materials. The school's published pages and contacts do not list boarding provision or boarding charges.
Other costs and additional fees - Extension/preparation course fees (optional supplementary courses) are published for specific programmes: for example, General English and preparatory extension courses are published at monthly fees such as 25,000–65,000 AMD depending on course type and schedule; specified programme examples include a Mathematics preparatory course published at 28,000 AMD per month (level fee: 130,000 AMD) and General English courses published at 35,000–45,000 AMD per month in published materials. These extension course fees are separate from the monthly tuition figures above. - Fees for examinations, Cambridge/IGCSE/A‑level examination entry charges, specific subject fees, learning‑support charges, school lunch, transport, uniform, textbooks, extracurricular club fees and similar ancillary charges are not published in the available materials. No uniform price or mandatory materials charge is listed in the published pages.
Refund information - The available published materials do not provide a school refund policy (for tuition, deposits, or application fees). One published item explicitly describes the application fee as non‑refundable for High School admissions, but a full refund and cancellation policy for tuition or other fees is not published in the available materials.
Fee payment options - The published contact and admissions pages provide school contact details (telephone and email) but do not publish specific accepted payment methods (for example, bank transfer, credit card, local payment systems) or bank account details in the available materials. No explicit list of accepted payment channels is published.
Summary of findings and gaps (concise) - Found: the school's 2026 published monthly tuition rates (75,000; 95,000; 130,000; 170,000; 280,000 AMD per month) and application fee amounts shown alongside those rates (20,000 AMD and 30,000 AMD), plus a High School page that lists a non‑refundable application fee of 15,000 AMD for local and 20,000 AMD for international applicants, and published extension course fees for several preparatory courses. - Not found in the published materials: a mapping that assigns each published monthly rate to a specific year group or grade band; any published per‑term or per‑academic‑year totals; a detailed billing schedule or instalment plan; a published tuition refund policy beyond the High School application fee note; boarding fees (no boarding listed); and specific accepted payment methods.
If you will include this summary in your external database, use the monthly tuition figures and the application fee amounts above as the school's published 2026 figures and note that per‑term/per‑year totals, the mapping of each rate to specific year groups, the billing schedule, refund policy and payment method details were not published in the available admissions and program materials.
