This Swiss boarding school blends royal luxury, world-class education, and seasonal campuses, making it the ultimate destination for elite families.
Parents of the world’s richest families pay more than ₹1 crore every year to send their children to Institute Le Rosey in Switzerland. People call it the “School of Kings” because royal families and billionaires across the globe have trusted it for generations.
Limited Students, Global Diversity
The school admits only about 450 students at a time and enforces a strict rule—no single nationality can make up more than 10% of the student body. This policy creates a global mix of classmates, where future leaders and heirs study together.
Fees That Surpass Ivy Leagues
Families pay around ₹1.12–1.14 crore (USD 132,000) annually for tuition, boarding, sports, cultural programs, and luxury amenities. The cost exceeds tuition at Ivy League universities, making it the most expensive school in the world.
Two Campuses for Two Seasons
Le Rosey operates two campuses and moves students with the seasons. In summer, students live and learn at the Rolle campus near Lake Geneva, which spans 28 hectares. In winter, the school shifts to Gstaad in the Swiss Alps, where students study and ski, snowboard, and play ice hockey.
Luxury Beyond Imagination
The school offers unmatched facilities. Students ride horses at a private equestrian center, practice sports on tennis courts, swim in heated pools, and train at a shooting range. They also perform in a world-class concert hall built at a cost of nearly ₹400 crore.
Personalized Academic Excellence
Teachers at Le Rosey deliver personalized learning through the International Baccalaureate (IB) and the French Baccalaureate programs. With nearly one teacher for every two students, the school ensures focused attention and prepares graduates for top universities worldwide.
Rivals in Swiss Luxury Education
Switzerland hosts other luxury schools as well. Collège Alpin Beau Soleil charges up to ₹1.3 crore per year, while Aiglon College and St. George’s International also demand fees close to ₹1 crore.
A Lifestyle, Not Just a School
Parents across the globe may find the fees unimaginable, but the wealthy elite view Le Rosey as more than a school. They see it as a lifestyle, a status symbol, and a gateway to power and privilege.
