International school and private school fees in Malaysia differ from school to school. However, each school offers an excellent education for your child that fits their educational needs and self-development at an affordable price.

If you are looking to calculate private and international school fees, School Advisor’s Fee Calculator is the right tool for you!

How to calculate tuition fees in Malaysia using School Advisor’s Fee Calculator

Here are some steps to help you navigate through School Advisor’s Fee Calculator:

Step 1: Select your type of school (international school, private school, preschool and boarding school), the school name and the expected grade your child will enrol at the school of your choice.

Some schools may not offer boarding opportunities. You can browse international and private schools to see what the school offers in terms of curriculum, facilities and information on the school’s extracurricular activities.

Step 2: Once you have selected your school, the breakdown of the fees will be shown.

Some schools may impose additional fees for international students. You can change the view from a local student to an international student from the drop-down and click on update for the latest fees.

The page will show all annual fees from the breakdown from the selected grade until they are expected to graduate. It is important to note additional language assistance and co-curricular fees are not included in the calculation.

If you are enrolling your child into a school that offers boarding opportunities, you can select the type of boarding that fits you and your child the best.
