Fee structure for schools in Shillong
Across the schools listed in Shillong, the annual fee structure runs from ₹26K – ₹2.84 L/year. The median sits near ₹2.28 L a year for CBSE schools.

The ranked list below sorts by annual tuition so you can scan within your budget bracket first.
What drives the fee differences
Beyond the classroom, three factors explain most of the fee spread in Shillong: campus size (land in central neighbourhoods costs more), facilities depth (international-curriculum schools usually carry richer infrastructure) and faculty mix (lower student-teacher ratios push tuition up). Two CBSE schools in the same Shillong neighbourhood often sit in different fee brackets for these reasons.
Reading a fee structure cleanly
Ask every shortlisted school for an itemised, grade-wise fee structure on paper — the published headline number rarely tells the full story. Confirm whether the figure is annual or quarterly, whether transport and meals are mandatory, what the security-deposit refund policy is, and how often the school revises tuition. Schools that share a clean breakdown usually have a transparent billing cycle.
Budget shortcuts
If you already know your annual budget, jump straight to the budget pages for Shillong — they pre-filter schools into clear price bands so you skip the irrelevant ones. Pair that with the area page for your neighbourhood to land on a small, real shortlist faster.
