Fees

Tuition fees are fixed at these US dollar (USD) equivalents for the duration of the school year. In case of devaluation of the Kazakhstani tenge (KZT), the amount payable in KZT will increase. When paying the tuition fee in installments at each billing period, the tuition fee amount in KZT is determined using the USD/KZT Kazakhstan stock exchange rate on the day the fees are paid.

If a child joins KIS in the middle of a semester, the calculation of the applicable school term fees is based on the remaining number of days of the school year divided by the total number of school days in the academic year. The admission fee must still be paid in full.

KIS requires one month's notice (in writing) prior to a child's early withdrawal, in order to have all documents and certificates prepared in time.

If parents request a refund, they need to complete the Early Withdrawal Application for Refund Form to request the refund for the remaining school days for which they are eligible.

The refund will not be paid if the request is not submitted in writing. Parents also need to complete the KIS Student Leaver Form to clear all debts with KIS before any official documents can be released to the family.

Once all the forms are completed, and all outstanding payments made and cleared, the report card and any transfer documents will be released to the family of the student leaving.

Refunds are based on the prorating of the remaining payment, minus the reservation fee and an administrative fee. (The administrative fee amounts to 10% of the fees for the number of days remaining in the academic year.)
