* In addition to tuition, students new to GDS pay $500, which is applied to the School's plant replacement reserve, in each of their first three years. This fee is due with the July 1 payment.

The first semester payment, 60% of tuition, is due no later than July 1. The second semester payment, 40% of tuition, is due no later than January 1. Georgetown Day School offers a variety of tuition payment options. Parents may wish to take advantage of the Sallie Mae phased tuition payment plan or direct debit from checking and savings accounts. Tuition insurance is also available at 1% of the total year's tuition excluding fees. To find out more about these alternatives, contact the GDS Business Office at 202-295-6110.

A $1,000 Enrollment Deposit for students is due upon admission and is held on account until graduation. The enrollment deposit for financial aid recipients is $250. The enrollment deposit is not applied to tuition and is forfeited unless written notification of the intent to withdraw is received by the Head of School on or before February 11.

In addition to tuition, a Replacement Reserve Fee of $500 is assessed per student in each of their first three years at GDS. This fee, which is designated for the improvement of the physical plant, is due with the July 1 payment. A Graduation Fee of $225 is included in the twelfth-grade tuition.

Children will not be admitted to school until fees have been fully paid by the appropriate due dates, with the exception of parents participating in an alternative payment plan. The School will neither grant diplomas nor transfer academic credit if accounts are not paid in full. No refunds will be made for absence or withdrawal before the end of the school year.

GDS offers an After-School Program (ASP) for Lower and Middle School students. Please click on the ASP link above to learn more about the extensive array of classes and enrichment opportunities at ASP.

Payment Policy
Invoices for Regular Care are computed on a semester basis and sent out in October and February. Invoices for Drop-in Care and late pick-up fees are issued on a monthly basis.
In order for us to plan and maintain the program, the students registered for Regular Care are enrolled for an entire semester and parents are financially responsible for the number of days reserved, regardless of whether or not the child attends all of those days.
Families currently receiving financial aid receive the same percentage of assistance on the daily ASP charge as they do on tuition. Financial Aid is not applicable towards Registration Fees.
