TUITION & FINANCIAL AID

You can see The Global College tuition rates and fees here.
We are committed to building a diverse student body in terms of nationalities, cultures and backgrounds. To this end, we offer two financial aid programs: Merit-based scholarships and Means-tested grants.
We encourage families who cannot afford full tuition to contact our Admissions Team even if they think they will not qualify for financial aid. Our mission is to make The Global College accessible to students with true potential and we will assess you while considering your specific situation.

Merit-based Scholarships

Scholarships are awards available to both day and boarding students who excel in their academic studies as well as in technology, entrepreneurship or CAS related activities.

Besides the specific criteria required in each scholarship definition, all candidates must show potential to excel in the IB Diploma Programme and a commitment to qualities and behaviors consistent with The Global College values.

Candidates who receive a merit-based scholarship will become TGC Ambassadors and will be expected to contribute by participating in campus events as well as supporting different initiatives around the College.

Application Process: Candidates may apply for a scholarship once they have submitted their admissions application. To formally apply for a Merit Scholarship, in addition to the application documentation, candidates must submit:

  • Application that will include a personal statement
  • Any relevant supporting documents that accredit the merit

The application details and form will be sent to parents upon request. Please contact our Financial Aid Team.  Scholarships may be applied for in the 15 days following the admissions application. The deadline to apply for merit-based scholarships is January 31st and resolutions will be communicated in March.

Means-tested Grants

In order to maintain an internationally and socio-economically diverse student body, The Global College has a Financial Aid Assistance Program available to students who demonstrate financial need. Financial Assistance will be awarded to candidates as determined by the Scholarship Selection Committee and based on documented financial need. The grant amount will be determined based on the accredited need.

Financial Aid assistance may be awarded to any qualifying student who satisfies our admissions requirements. The award amount is based on several factors, including the demonstrated financial need of the family (taking into account not only income but also number of dependent children), the available funds in the financial aid budget, the total number of students needing financial assistance, etc. and it can range from small discounts to more substantial support for families with specific and severe needs.

Application Process: Candidates must submit:

  • Financial Aid Application Form
  • Financial Documents
  • Any relevant supporting documents

The application details and form will be sent to parents upon request. Please contact our Financial Aid Team. Means tested grants can be applied for in the 15 days after the candidate has submitted their Admissions application. The resolution will be communicated once the candidate is admitted.

 

Information on merit-based scholarships and means-tested grants is valid for candidates for September 2023. Information regarding scholarships and financial aid for September 2024 will be updated soon.
