6. DEPOSITS AND FEES
Deposits To accept the offer of a place at the College, a deposit is required, which varies depending on pupils’ residence:
Refunds
Our scheme for advance payment of school fees allows those families, who might find it helpful, to pay some or all of their likely school fees in advance. The finance team can advise on the lump sums required to cover future fee liability and fees paid in advance currently attract a discount per annum.
If a candidate does not meet the entry requirements and Eastbourne College declines to accept that candidate on academic grounds (ie the prospective pupil does not get the expected marks or grades for entry), the parents will not be liable for the first term’s fees and Eastbourne College will refund the acceptance/guaranteed place deposit. More information on refunds can be found in the College’s Terms and Conditions.
£2,000 UK £20,000 International
The College normally classes a pupil as ‘international’ if one or both parents normally resides abroad and/or, more importantly, if the income of the parent or parents who are responsible for paying the school fees is generated overseas. Ownership of property in the UK can help to show that a family may reside in this country, but the finance office reserves the right to make a decision based on the country of employment in the first instance. The acceptance / guaranteed place deposit is non-refundable until the end of a pupil’s course and will be credited to the final extras bill.
