**Boarding Care: "Early-Entrance Discount"

When planning toward the next school year for our Boarding Care Program, we prefer to have our information sooner – rather than later. It makes things easier for us to know well ahead of time. While students can register to enter at any time (subject to availability), we would like to offer families a bit of an incentive to decide early.

When new boarding students apply before February 15th to start the fall semester, we will waive the "Boarding Capital Fee"!That's a W1,000,000 saving as a way of saying, "Thank you for helping us to plan earlier."

**Please note: To receive this discount, students need to submit their application before February 15th, and the standard tuition payment (one semester or full year) must be paid by March 15th.
