Mirdif American School offers tuition fees for the 2025-2026 academic year ranging from AED 25,944 for Pre-K through to AED 47,081 for Grade 10. The school follows the American curriculum and has consistently received a Good rating from KHDA, making it a competitively priced option within the American curriculum segment in Dubai. Fees are structured to reflect the progression through grade levels, with notable increases at the middle school stage.
The published tuition fees do not represent the full cost of attendance. Families should budget for additional mandatory costs including books and learning resources (ranging from AED 1,238 to AED 2,478 depending on grade), uniform (AED 619 for most grades), and a range of supplementary fees covering skill development programs, national agenda parameter assessments, enrichment activities, and a school ID. A non-refundable application fee of AED 525 (inclusive of VAT) applies to all new admissions.
Payment of total fees is structured across four installments: an initial payment of 10% of tuition fees plus the application fee upon registration, followed by three equal post-dated cheques dated August 1, November 1, and February 1. Notably, the school does not accept guarantee cheques. Students in Grades 1 and 2 are also required to purchase a laptop (approximately AED 2,000), and all students in Grades 3–10 must provide their own laptop or tablet device.
