For 2026 - 2027, the annual tuition ranges between US$ 12,000 for PreKindergarten (PreSchool) up to $32,100 for Grades 11 & 12.

We're happy to provide more detailed tuition information upon request.

ISD School Fees 2026-2027

Fee Payment Information

ISD tuition is set in US dollars, and we prefer payments via electronic transfer or US dollar check. For those paying in CFA, an exchange rate (available at the Business Office) is set weekly. Please note that payers are responsible for any bank transfer fees. Enrollment is a private agreement between the parent and ISD, making the parent responsible for all fees.

Unfortunately, students with overdue tuition cannot attend school, and outstanding balances from previous years must be paid. Late payments incur a monthly fee of 1.5%.

All school records are held until full payment is received.

Tuition Payment Options

For your convenience, ISD tuition can be paid in one, two, or three installments. Parents who select the single payment must pay at least the 1st installment by August 1st, or seven calendar days after their arrival, and the balance by October 13, 2025. Unpaid balances after this date will automatically convert to a two-payment plan, incurring the standard installment fee.

Parents who select the two-payment plan must pay all fees by November 20, 2025. Unpaid balances after this date will automatically convert to a three-payment plan, incurring the standard installment fee.

Capital Development and Application Fees are due in full upon acceptance. After signing and returning the Enrollment Contract, our Business Office will send you an invoice. Please see our Installment Guide and Fees Sheet (links below) for more details.
