Fees
Application fees
- No official, itemised application or registration fee for Gandhi Memorial Intercontinental School Semarang (GMIS Semarang) for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year is publicly posted.
- Independent local reports list estimated entry/registration costs for GMIS Semarang in previous years but do not provide a consistent, published figure; those estimates vary by source.

Tuition fees by year group (per year / per term where available)
- No official, grade-by-grade fee schedule for GMIS Semarang for 2026/27 or 2025/26 is publicly posted. Exact per-term or per-year tuition amounts for each year group (Nursery / Pre‑School, Primary, Middle, Senior/IGCSE/A‑Level) are not published on the school's public pages.
- Third-party published estimates and media summaries show a wide range for annual tuition at GMIS (Semarang and other GMIS campuses) depending on source and year: examples reported include annual figures around Rp67,000,000 for early years in some listings, and broader ranges reported of approximately Rp48,000,000 to Rp140,000,000 or higher for different year groups. These figures are estimates reported by third parties and are not a definitive, itemised fee schedule for GMIS Semarang.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- No published, school-specific billing schedule or formal payment terms (for example: annual vs termly invoicing, due dates, late-payment penalties, or instalment plans) were located for GMIS Semarang. Parents should treat specific timing and late‑payment rules as not publicly available.
- For reference within the same GMIS network, another GMIS campus publishes an annual net-fee model and bank-transfer payment instructions, and notes administration charges for card payments — indicating that some GMIS campuses use annual or term-based billing and bank transfer as a payment method. That campus's published details show non‑refundable labels, sibling discounts, and bank charges for card payments. These particulars apply to that campus and should not be assumed to be identical at GMIS Semarang.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- No boarding (asrama) programme or published boarding fees were identified for GMIS Semarang in publicly available materials. There is no published boarding fee schedule for the Semarang campus.

Other costs and compulsory extras
- No definitive, published list of mandatory extras (uniform, textbooks, school bus, activity fees, insurance, refundable deposits, exams or external assessment fees) for GMIS Semarang was located. Local media summaries and school‑comparison articles list typical items that families commonly pay at international schools (uniforms, books, school bus, extracurricular activity charges) but provide only estimated totals rather than an itemised, official Semarang schedule.
- As an example of how a GMIS campus may treat extras: one GMIS campus publishes that textbooks and certain uniforms and two extracurricular activities are included with the published net annual fee for the first three years, while school‑bus charges are listed separately. That example should not be interpreted as the Semarang campus policy.

Refund information
- No published refund or withdrawal policy specific to GMIS Semarang was located. A GMIS campus fee document elsewhere in the network is labelled “NON‑REFUNDABLE” for its fees; whether the Semarang campus applies an identical non‑refundable policy is not publicly stated.

Fee payment options
- No official list of accepted payment methods (credit card, local bank transfer, international bank transfer, online payment gateway) was published for GMIS Semarang.
- Within the GMIS network, at least one campus requires payment by bank transfer and details account information, and also discloses administration charges for credit/debit card payments (example: card administration fee percentages). Those published practices show that bank transfer and card payments are used by network campuses, but campus‑to‑campus policies may differ.

Brief summary of findings and data gaps
- The school's public pages do not publish a detailed, current fee schedule for the Semarang campus for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year, and no authoritative, itemised per‑grade or per‑term fees for GMIS Semarang were located. Independent media and parent‑facing listings provide varied estimates and ranges rather than a single, official schedule. Where precise, itemised figures or formal policies are required (application/registration fee, tuition per year group and per term, billing schedule, refunds, payment methods), those items were not available in the public domain for GMIS Semarang at the time this information was compiled.

(If you require the official, itemised fee schedule and formal payment/withdrawal terms for GMIS Semarang for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 year, note that no such document was publicly posted; the statements above reflect public records and independent reporting.)

Admissions

Admissions

1. Enquiry and Initial Contact: Parents contact the Admissions Office by email or text to receive the most up-to-date information about programmes, curriculum pathways, fee structure, and place availability. At this stage, parents may arrange a school tour to visit the campus, meet staff, and gain a better understanding of the learning environment. The Admissions Office can be reached by email or via WhatsApp for further guidance. 2. Registration Submission: Parents complete and submit the registration form with the required information and supporting documents. These may include previous school reports, identification documents, and any relevant academic records, depending on the pupil's entry level. Submission of an application does not guarantee placement, as admission is subject to assessment and availability. The Admissions Team will acknowledge receipt and outline the next steps. 3. Assessment and Review: Applicants may be required to participate in an age-appropriate assessment or academic review. This process helps the school understand the pupil's current level of learning and determine appropriate placement and support. For Early Years pupils, the process may involve observation and informal interaction rather than formal testing. 4. Interview and Discussion: An interview or discussion with parents and, where appropriate, the pupil may be conducted. This allows the school to clarify expectations, discuss the pupil's needs, and ensure alignment between the family and the school's educational approach. The interview helps finalize placement in conjunction with assessments. 5. Offer of Placement: Following review of the application and assessment results, families will be informed of the outcome. If a place is offered, the Admissions Office will provide details regarding programme placement, fees, and enrolment timelines. 6. Enrolment and Confirmation: To confirm placement, parents complete the enrolment process and settle the required fees within the stated timeline. Once enrolment is confirmed, the school will provide information regarding school readiness, orientation, and the start of the academic programme, and parents may be required to fill in the Admission Form. 7. Ongoing Communication: The Admissions Office maintains open and clear communication throughout the process. Parents are encouraged to contact the school if clarification or additional guidance is required at any stage.
