Tuition Prices for the Long-Term Study Program
(Each session lasts 55 minutes.)

This program allows students to sign up for 10 to 16 weeks of classes, consisting of 1 private session and 3 group sessions per day, and at a cost significantly lower than our regular rates.

For example, 16 weeks of classes at the normal rate would be US$2480:

3 hours of group instruction, 5 days a week @ US$85 x 16 weeks = US$1360 US, plus 1 private session per day, 5 days a week @ US$70 x 16 weeks = US$1120.

With the long-term study program you would pay only US$1860, representing a saving of US$620. Contact us for price information on courses shorter than 16 weeks.

(We offer this program from August to May only; it is not available for June and July. Tuition for this program is non-refundable, however if you have to leave, we will grant you a credit for future study.)

Prices for Home Stays

US$22 per day, single room (includes 3 meals)
US$19 per day, shared room (includes 3 meals)

Our Dormitory
Staying in our dormitory lets you enjoy the convenience of living close to your classes. You can choose a private or shared room. The rooms are well lit, clean, and spacious. Each has a comfortable bed, desk and closet. Some also have a private bathroom. Laundry facilities are also available on campus. The dormitory has a beautiful view of the mountains, offers a quiet place to study and the ability to meet and socialize easily with other students. Make sure you plan ahead in order to reserve a room!

Prices range from $110 pesos to $400 pesos (US$11 to US$40) per night (prices depend on the facilities, ie some rooms have a private bathroom).

* All prices are subject to change.

Apartments
 We have a number of apartments available for short- and long-term rentals.  Prices range from $200 -$600 per month depending on the unit and the length of stay. Please contact us with your travel dates and requirements to find out availability and prices.

Registration and Payment
Housing and tuition deposits must be paid as outlined on the Registration Form . We accept deposits in US$ in the form of money orders or cashiers checks without an expiration date. Personal checks will not be accepted. Please make your checks payable to "Jorge Barroso, Academia Falcon". You can fax us a copy of your check with a copy of your registration e-mail. This will save you the cost (US$40) of paying DHL or other express mailing services. When you get here you can give the check to the person in charge of registration. If you choose to buy a money order with an EXPIRATION DATE, you must send it immediately by Federal Express, UPS, DHL or Airborne Express. We are not responsible if your money order gets lost in slow oldfashon normal postal service.

Students coming from Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and any other countries besides the USA and Canada do not need to pay a deposit for tuition or housing in advance, but should pay them in cash on the first day of classes. If you have to cancel your registration, please inform us in writing at least two weeks before your classes and housing is due to start so that we can try to fill the vacancy. 

Please plan ahead and have the money you will need for school fees when you arrive in Guanajuato. These fees include:

  • A one-time only, lifetime registration fee of US$75
  • The balance of the tuition at weekly rates
  • A refundable textbook deposit of US$25 or US$30
  • Fees for any accommodation, other than home stays, that you ask Academia Falcon to arrange.

Field trips and cultural events cost extra (inquire on arrival).

Materials are not included in class fees, so you may be required to pay for them separately.

Home stay payments: You must make your own arrangements to pay your family for the balance of your housing expenses.

Payment is accepted in cash, either in PESOS or US$. Personal checks will not be accepted. All paid tuition and deposits are non-refundable, but may be applied to future study if you change your plans.

Please also bring a driverīs license picture size (ie small enough to fit onto an ID card) photo for your student ID.

Although we have not increased our tuition fees for group classes in the last five years, all prices are subject to change. All prices are in US dollars.
