International Fees
School Fees
Whitby Collegiate's fees are based on a four-term academic year and apply to international students only.
All fees are quoted in New Zealand Dollars (NZD) and include Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 15%, where applicable.
Tuition fees cover classroom teaching, academic support, pastoral care, careers guidance, access to school facilities, and participation in the College's sporting and cultural programmes.
The Proprietor's Board sets tuition fees to ensure the continued delivery of a high-quality educational experience while remaining responsive to the needs of families. The Board reserves the right to review and amend fees at its discretion.
Please note that this fee schedule is subject to change.
Please note that English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) tuition is not included in the standard tuition fees. Students who require additional ESOL support will be assessed upon enrolment, and any recommended ESOL programme will incur an additional fee.
