Fees
Annual tuition at Atlantic Hall School ranges from NGN 1 for 2026/27.
Application & registration fees
- Registration (application) fee: ₦15,000 — non‑refundable. - Acceptance fee (payable after an offer of admission): ₦200,000 — non‑refundable.
Tuition fees by year group (per term and per year)
- A detailed, year‑grouped fee schedule is not published publicly; the school provides a full fee schedule and breakdown directly to parents. - Recent public estimates for total tuition (published by independent local media and school‑fees guides) place annual tuition in the following ranges: - Day students (annual): approximately ₦3,000,000 to ₦3,800,000 — which equates to roughly ₦1,000,000 to ₦1,267,000 per term on a three‑term billing basis. - Boarding students (annual): estimates reported between approximately ₦5,000,000 and ₦7,100,000 — which equates to roughly ₦1,667,000 to ₦2,367,000 per term on a three‑term billing basis. - These publicly reported figures are estimates and do not provide the school's internal, year‑by‑year breakdown (e.g., Primary vs. Lower Secondary vs. Upper Secondary). The school's private fee schedule contains the precise per‑year and per‑term figures.
Boarding fees (where applicable)
- Atlantic Hall operates boarding facilities. Published market estimates for boarding (total annual charge including meals and boarding provision) fall within the annual ranges noted above for boarding students (approx. ₦5,000,000–₦7,100,000). Per‑term boarding estimates (three terms) therefore fall in the approximate ranges shown earlier. Exact boarding rooming category fees, deposits, or tiered boarding charges (if any) are provided in the school's confidential fee schedule.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Billing cadence: Fees are payable by term; fees must be paid before resumption for each term/session. Students with outstanding fees will not be admitted into the hostels. - No discount is offered for paying the full session/year in advance. - Sibling discounts: 5% on the second child, 10% on the third child, and 15% on the fourth child — these discounts apply to the tuition and boarding fees of the last child in each category, and only after full payment has been made for all enrolled children for the session.
Other costs and typical additional charges
- Items explicitly included within the school's fees: teaching, classroom resources, essential educational materials, textbooks (some), pastoral care, meals, and some curriculum‑based or competition trips. - Items parents typically budget separately for (not itemised publicly by the school): full school uniform set(s), personal stationery and supplies, optional extracurricular activities and trips beyond those covered, external examination fees, transport to/from school, medical/insurance costs beyond routine care, and personal items. Exact amounts for these items are specified in the school's private fee schedule or in admission correspondence.
Refund information
- The registration (application) fee and the acceptance fee are non‑refundable. - The school does not publish a comprehensive public tuition‑refund policy; the detailed refund/cancellation terms (if any) are supplied with the private fee schedule or in the school's admission/contract documentation.
Fee payment options
- Accepted payment method: Bank transfer is the only acceptable mode of payment. Personal or company cheques are not accepted. - Parents use the school's admissions and parent portals for account management and receipts; specific payment account details and remittance instructions are provided directly to payers.
Data availability and note on public figures
- The school supplies a full, itemised fee schedule privately to parents; the public site does not publish a term‑by‑term, year‑by‑year fee table. Independent reports and local media list approximate annual totals and ranges for day and boarding students (as summarised above). Where precise per‑year and per‑term figures are required for your database, the school's private fee schedule contains the official breakdown.
