Application fees

- No public, fixed application fee amount is published. The school's pre-registration and admissions process indicates that families must complete a pre-registration form and will be contacted to schedule an in-person visit where all admission details are provided.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)

- The school does not publish a detailed tuition schedule for Early Childhood, Elementary, Middle, or High School on the publicly accessible admissions/pre-registration information. Specific per-term and per-year tuition figures are not available in the school's public admissions materials. Families are provided full fee details during the admissions meeting that follows pre-registration.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- A public billing schedule (for example: number of payments per year, due dates by term, or penalties for late payment) is not posted in the school's public admissions or pre-registration materials. Billing and payment terms are handled through the admissions office and are communicated directly to families during the in-person admissions meeting after pre-registration.

Boarding fees (if applicable)

- Saint Thomas School operates as a day school for Preschool through Grade 12; there is no published information indicating an on-campus boarding program or boarding fees. No boarding fee schedule is available.

Other costs and fees (uniforms, books, transport, extracurriculars, deposits, technology, exam fees)

- No itemized public schedule for additional costs such as uniforms, textbooks, transportation, extracurricular fees, enrollment deposit, technology fees, or external exam fees is posted in the publicly available admissions or pre-registration materials. These ancillary costs are provided to families as part of the admissions packet or during the in-person admissions meeting.

Refund information

- There is no publicly posted refund policy or schedule (for application fees, deposits, or tuition) in the school's admissions or pre-registration pages. Refund terms are communicated directly to families during the admissions process.

Fee payment options (credit card, bank transfer, checks, installments)

- A public list of accepted payment methods is not provided in the admissions or pre-registration information. Payment methods and options are addressed by the admissions office and explained to families during the admissions meeting following pre-registration.

How families receive fee information

- Families must complete the school's pre-registration form.

Summary of availability (academic year requested)

- A detailed, publicly posted fee schedule for the 2026/27 academic year (or for 2025/26) was not found in the school's publicly available admissions or pre-registration materials. The admissions/pre-registration process states that full fee details are provided to families during the in-person admissions meeting scheduled after pre-registration. Because specific fee figures, billing schedules, refund policies, and payment-method lists are not published in the public admissions content, those items must be obtained directly from the school's admissions office.
