Tuition and fees may be paid using one of the four options below:

- Pay annual tuition and fees on or before July 1, 2010. Parents may avoid the Tuition Refund Plan fee by paying 100% by July 1 and signing the Tuition Refund Plan Waiver.

- Two-payment plan: Pay by direct withdrawal 65% of tuition and 100% of fees on July 15, 2010 and the remaining 35% of tuition on November 15, 2010. McLean's Administrative Processing Fee of $175 will be charged to your account.

- Ten-payment plan: Pay by direct withdrawal 100% of tuition and fees over 10 consecutive months beginning on May 17, 2010. McLean's Administrative Processing Fee of $400 will be charged to your account.

The school's enrollment contract allows for payment of the tuition in installments as an option. The contractual obligation to pay the tuition and fees for the academic year is not altered or modified by a subsequent absence, withdrawal, or dismissal of the student from the school except as outlined in the Tuition Refund Plan.


The charge for McLean's mandatory Tuition Refund Plan is 1.5% of the annual year's tuition and applies to withdrawals prior to April 4, 2011. The benefits in summary, are:

A. If the student is withdrawn from the school because of the student's physical disability or illness, certified by a qualified physician, (for more than 10 consecutive days), the school will refund 80% of the annual tuition, prorated for the portion of the school year remaining at the time of withdrawal.

B. If the student is voluntarily withdrawn from the school, the school will refund 50% of the annual tuition, prorated for the portion of the school year remaining at the time of withdrawal.

A student must be in attendance for at least 14 consecutive calendar days beginning the first day of academic classes in order to be eligible for the credit.

C. If the student is expelled from the school, the school will refund 35% of the annual tuition, prorated for the portion of the school year remaining at the time of withdrawal.
