Fees
Application / Enrollment fees
- Play Group (Infant School): Matrta (enrollment) UF 12,85. Arancel anual (annual tuition) UF 138,85. No cuota de incorporaci n (no separate joining fee) for Play Group.
- Other year groups: numeric enrollment/application fees are not published on the public admissions pages.

Tuition fees by year group (annual and per-term information)
- Play Group (Infant School): Arancel Anual UF 138,85; Matrta UF 12,85. The school lists the tuition as an annual arancel.
- Junior School and Senior School (3rd grade through 11th/4th senior): specific annual or per-term numeric aranceles are not published on the public admissions pages available.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school runs a formal matriculation process with set dates for regular, new-student and exceptional enrolment; the annual arancel and payment methods are defined each year as part of that process. For the matriculation process the school: uses SchoolNet for the enrollment procedure, requires the financial guardian to complete the process, and requires regularization of any outstanding debts before enrolling. A 2% discount is offered for early payment of tuition (pago anticipado de colegiaturas). An exceptional enrollment window applies a 2% surcharge on the base tariff and does not qualify for the early-payment discount.
- Payment by the school's indicated online platform (Toku) requires the cardholder to create a mandate on the Bradford Pay / Toku portal prior to payment (mentions PAC or PAT options for that platform). The matriculation instructions recommend preparing the chosen payment method in advance and completing the SchoolNet steps.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- Boarding: Not applicable. Bradford School is presented as a day school offering Infant, Junior and Senior levels; no boarding/internado facilities or boarding fees are listed on the school's admissions or general information pages.

Other costs and typical additional fees
- Incorporation/joining fee: For Play Group the school specifies no cuota de incorporaci n.
- Extracurricular activities / talleres: extracurricular workshops carry separate monthly fees. Example: a listed workshop (Taller 1) is priced at CLP 36,000 per month (example of extracurricular monthly fee).
- School meals (casino): meal services at the school are operated through an external prepaid vendor (CasinoExpress), implying meals are billed separately via that provider. Specific meal prices are managed through the vendor's system.
- Uniforms, transport and other routine charges: no published numeric values for uniform or bus/transport fees were found on the public admissions or matriculation pages.

Refund information
- No explicit, published refund policy or detailed public statement on refunds for paid matrícula or colegiaturas was found on the school's publicly available admissions or matriculation pages.

Fee payment options
- SchoolNet is the core platform used for the matriculation and payment process; the school references Bradford Pay / Toku (online payment platform) for card payments and mandates (PAC or PAT). The matriculation instructions explicitly indicate use of Toku and the need to create a mandate for credit/debit card payments. Contact emails for financial/matriculation queries are provided by the school (matricula@bradford.cl).

Summary of gaps (concise):
- The public admissions and matriculation pages publish Play Group numeric values (Matrta UF 12,85; Arancel Anual UF 138,85) and the matriculation/payment rules (discounts, surcharge, payment platform), but a full, itemised annual fee schedule showing numeric aranceles for each grade level (per term breakdown, uniform costs, transport fees, and an explicit refund policy) is not available on the public pages inspected. For those missing items the school's matriculation/finance contact is listed as matricula@bradford.cl.
