Tuition for Special Services

As part of AISJ enrollment criteria, the school may require certain students to receive special services as a condition of their enrollment. Depending on the severity of needs, these services may include Learning Support (LS), English Language Learning (ELL), and Speech Language Pathology (SLP). AISJ will provide these services as necessary, for an additional fee. Access to these special programs may be based on seat availability and student need. 

LEVEL OF SUPPORT FEES (SAR)
Extensive Service Level I 9,500
Mild/Moderate Service Level II 6,300

*In special circumstances when students require a one-to-one assistant, parents will pay the additional wage cost of the personnel required.

*LS/ELL/SLP fees are payable in advance by semester but refundable for any non-used quarter. Participation during any part of a quarter constitutes payment due for the entire quarter.

Non-returning students shall submit withdrawal forms to the Admissions Office. Students who do not pay the seat deposit fee will not be guaranteed a seat for the following year and will have to reapply. Seats with a seat deposit paid but with unpaid tuition will be held until the 3rd day of the following school year. If arrival is planned after the due date of August 15, 2018, tuition payment should be paid no later than June 30th to avoid late fees or disenrollment. A planned absence form must be submitted to the appropriate divisional office in advance in order to avoid disenrollment. Please note that seat deposits should be taken seriously as a commitment to return to AISJ.
