Fees

Principles

The following general principles apply to fee payments:

1. All fees are listed in US dollars.
2. One half of the annual tuition fee and campus development fee is payable at the beginning of each semester.

• Upon early withdrawal, semester tuition fees and campus development fees will be refunded as follows:
• If withdrawal occurs within the first nine weeks of the semester, there will be a 50% refund of the semester fees.
• If the withdrawal occurs during the second nine-week period of the semester, there will be no refund of the semester fees.

The Categories

Sponsoring Missions

This category is for students from the missions or groups which founded the school, i.e., Global Interaction (formally ABMS), Asian Pacific Christian Mission (APCM), Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA), Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF), Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL), The Evangelical Alliance Mission (TEAM), Unevangelized Fields Mission (UFM), World Team, and ZGK. Because the funding of school facilities and teacher salaries come from these groups, they pay subsidized rates. Other groups may be considered as a sponsoring group provided their statement of faith agrees with the school’s statement of faith and they contribute significantly to the school in ways such as providing teachers or major grants towards campus development or capital items. The school board must approve new sponsoring groups. (return to top)

Non-Profit Organizations

This category is for students whose parents are in the country under the auspices of non-profit service organizations. These could be missions or Christian groups other than the sponsoring organizations as well as other not-for-profit, non-government organizations which work in Indonesia for the welfare and advancement of the local people.

Business and Government

Students in this category are not subsidized and pay full costs. (return to top)

Tuition Reductions

1. Any organization providing full-time instructional, administrative, or maintenance personnel for the school (defined as someone who gets their visa through the school) will be compensated with a tuition reduction. The tuition reduction will be 2% of the tuition per teacher per student. (For example, an organization having two teachers would receive a 4% discount for each student.)
2. Any part-time instructional, administrative, or maintenance staff (those that are in the country without a school visa or work permit) will be considered volunteer staff. Organizations will not be compensated with a tuition reduction for volunteer staff. (return to top)

Campus Development Fees

	Sponsoring	Non-Profit	Business/Government
Kindergarten	$50.00	$75.00	$750.00
Elementary (grades 1-5)	$100.00	$150.00	$1,500.00

High School (grades 9-12)	$200.00	$300.00	$2,500.00

Funds raised by groups or individuals towards campus development projects may be applied towards the campus development fees for the students of that group or individual starting from the beginning of the school year in which those funds are received. (return to top)

Hostel Fees

The hostel fees per person per year for the 2006-07 school year are as follows:

Hostel Parents	Actual costs
Sponsoring group high school students	$2,185
Non-Profit group high school students	$2,415
Business/Government group high school students	$3,335
Grades 6-8	90% of high school rate
Grades K-5	80% of high school rate

In order to make payment easier, parents may pay in ten equal monthly payments. This is not the cost of one month, but is a tenth of the yearly fee. Therefore the payments for December and January will be the same as other months though the students are only in the hostel half of each of these months. Payment of hostel fees will be due at the beginning of each month. Allowances and special costs not covered by hostel fees will be passed on to the parents.

Hostel space is reserved by placing a $50 deposit. Of those placing a deposit, up until February 15 priority is given to students from sponsoring organizations, then to students from non-profit groups, and then to business/government students. After February 15,  all organizations will be considered equally.  This fee will be refunded when the student leaves the hostel.

If a deposit and application are submitted and later rescinded, the school must be notified by May 1 in order for the deposit to be refunded. After May 1, unless there are extenuating circumstances such as visa problems or no hostel parents, the deposit is forfeited to the campus development fund. The selection of another boarding option is not considered an extenuating circumstance. (return to top)

Delinquent Accounts

All fees must be paid in full before any records are released. The school will not re-admit a student with unpaid bills. (return to top)
