When my child goes in, he should be smiling. And when he comes out he should be smiling. One remarkable thing that I noticed at SIS is that all the children, all the staff are smiling. They're happy! They Look happy.

Refund Policy
- Refunded tuition will be prorated by the number of attended school days and it shall be deducted from the payment amount except for the re-enrollment or enrollment payment. The refunded amount will be made in the currency used for payment.
- Bus fees may be refunded and the amount shall be prorated based on remaining number of school days.
- Refunds are wire transferred or given to parents, or their authorized representative.
- Refund Policy for Early Withdrawals is invalid in the event of a Force Majeure that causes a student or students to withdraw from the school. No portion of tuition and fees already paid for the school year will be refunded, and unpaid fees will be due payable. Force Majeure is defined as an event such as war, civil strife, labor unrest, earthquakes, nuclear disaster or extreme weather conditions that cannot be reasonably anticipated or controlled. This policy is deemed necessary to ensure financial stability of the school and its continued operations subsequent to any such event.
Non-Refundable School Fees
Late Entry Payment Arrangements
For those students who joins us later in the year we have a prorated payment system. Tuition less the enrollment fee will be pro rata based on the number of school days remaining for students entering SIS after the first day of school.
Payment Instructions
Starting the 2019-2020 School Year, tuition and school fee payment method has been changed:
Tuition shall be paid in the existing “virtual account transfer method” and all other school fees shall be paid by “자동인출방식(Cash Management Service)”.
For Returning Students:
Tuition invoice will be issued to each student with two separate virtual accounts(가상계좌); one for the USD payment and another for the KRW payment. These virtual accounts are individualized for each student throughout their enrollment at SIS. All other school fees will automatically be withdrawn from the pre-authorized parent accounts.
For Newly Enrolling Students:
The invoice for the application processing fee will be issued to each student. After enrolled, a tuition invoice will be issued separately.
If you have any inquiries regarding payment of tuition or any fees, feel free to contact us at any time.
