FEES & PAYMENTS

Our Refund Policy of Fee Accounts & Credit Balances 

Overpayment of school fees is allocated to the family account-holder account, putting them into a credit balance. 

On 31 December, all credit balances are treated as pre-payment for the next year. 

Family account holders can request refunds of overpaid fees, but these are made at the discretion of the Principal or Business Manager. 

The College's policy is to refund the credit balance on request, less the value of remaining fees still to be billed in the current year. For example – If an account is in credit $2,000 and the remaining fees to be billed for the year are $3,000 – no refund would be given.

Refund of credit on a family account-holder account, where there is a joint and several liability, must be approved by both parents.  

Refund of tuition or boarding fees

When a student leaves the College part way through a term, the following refunds apply:

1. Within three weeks of the start of a term, 70% of that term's fees will be refunded.
2. After three weeks from the start of a term, there is no refund.
3. AIEF/Smith Family Scholarship recipients are liable for 100% of fees incurred up to the exit date.
