Fees

Application fees
- There is no application fee for admission to the school's state-funded gymnasium programmes; applications are managed through the public enrolment process for the school.

Tuition fees by school year (per term / per year group)
- Regular state gymnasium programmes (Years I–IV) do not charge tuition fees; there is no per-term or per-year tuition for the standard municipal/state curriculum.
- For students enrolled in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme, there are separate IB registration and per‑subject examination charges set by the International Baccalaureate Organization; these are charged in addition to the school's regular programmes and are billed according to IB procedures (IB exam fees are assessed per candidate and per subject — example scales for May 2026 show per‑subject fees on the order of ~USD 123–124). Exact IB fees are set by the IB and billed to schools/parents.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- There is no regular school tuition billing schedule for the state gymnasium programmes because no tuition is charged.
- IB-related charges (registration and assessment fees) follow the IB invoicing and registration calendar; schools collect these fees and forward payments per the IB billing timetable (deadlines and late fees apply). Expect IB registration/invoice deadlines in the months before the May exam session and additional late fees for missed deadlines.

Boarding fees
- The school operates as a day school only; boarding facilities are not provided. There are therefore no boarding fees.

Other costs or fees (uniforms, materials, extracurriculars, lunches, trips, etc.)
- There is no published mandatory uniform fee for the state gymnasium programme on the school's statutory and public information documents. Standard outlays that families commonly meet include personal school supplies, textbooks where applicable, and incidental purchases (canteen/buffet, project materials, local excursions or extracurricular activity contributions). The school has a library and a canteen/buffet on site, and extracurricular activities and projects are part of the school's operations. These incidental costs are not presented as formal tuition charges.
- For IB candidates, additional costs can include: the IB registration/candidacy fee, per‑subject IB examination fees, and possible charges for coursework moderation, shipping or other IB administration — these items are billed separately from municipal schooling and vary by session and by school.

Refund information
- There is no tuition refund policy required for state gymnasium tuition because no tuition is charged. For IB fees, refund and retake policies are governed by the International Baccalaureate Organization and depend on IB deadlines and the IB's published rules (fees may be non‑refundable after IB processing deadlines; late registration or changes may incur additional charges). Parents should follow the IB invoicing and deadline provisions for any IB fee refund or adjustment.

Fee payment options
- No standard tuition-payment methods apply for state gymnasium tuition (no tuition collected).
- IB invoicing and payment are arranged through the IB's billing procedures; typical schools remit IB fees to the IB by the methods specified on IB invoices (schools commonly use bank transfer or the payment methods stated on IB invoices). Parents who are billed by the school for IB fees should follow the school's stated payment channels for those IB charges (school-collected IB fees are then forwarded according to IB billing instructions).

Summary statement for parents
- The Josip Broz Tito High School in Skopje is a municipal/state secondary school and does not charge application or tuition fees for its regular Years I–IV gymnasium programmes. There is no boarding and therefore no boarding fees. Additional direct charges may apply only for the IB Diploma Programme (IB registration and per‑subject exam fees set by the IB) and for incidental items such as books, supplies, canteen purchases, extracurricular trips or project materials.
