Please note that AIS holds parents, not employers, to be liable for all school fees and other payments due to the school. Where payments are made by employers, it is the parents’ responsibility to ensure that the company makes payment. If a place is accepted at AIS and the child does not attend the school, the fee deposit will be forfeited.
Fees paid after due date or returned (bounced) payment will be subject to bank charges and/or the school’s administration charges.
Fees charged are subject to EDB’s approval.

The school recognizes the right of currently enrolled students and families to consider other educational options, and if a transfer is initiated by the family, the school will provide appropriate documentation and support in a timely manner, including reminding the family of any policies related to contractual obligations to the school.
It is important for families to realize before they enroll in the American International School that any partial refund of tuition fees will only be possible if the school receives a minimum of three months advance notice in writing of any withdrawal. If a family withdraws a student without giving the required written notification at least three months in advance of withdrawing, the total number of days short of the notice period will be calculated as tuition fees with the outstanding amount payable to the school.
