The annual comprehensive fee is payable in four installments per year: the fall term fee in July and August, and the spring term fee in December and January. The College also offers the Bard Budget Plan (BBP), which allows payments of the comprehensive fee to be made in monthly installments. If tuition payment is not received by the deadline indicated in the payment schedule, a EUR 30,- late fee is charged per billing statement.

- The net tuition is the total comprehensive fee minus the annual approved financial aid and/or the scholarship awards.
- The non-refundable deposit of €500 is paid upon admission/renewal of financial aid and is applied as a credit to the first fall payment.
- Students who receive scholarships or financial aid awards should subtract those amounts from their total comprehensive fee. Please contact the Financial Aid Office if you have questions about your comprehensive fee payments.
