Delhi Public School Kollam is a residential-cum-day-boarding CBSE senior secondary school at Meeyannoor, outside the central city area of Kollam. Founded in 2019, it describes itself as Kerala’s first DPS and offers a K-12 environment with academics, sports, arts, physical education and residential facilities.

The admission model is more involved than a basic day-school registration because families may be comparing day schooling, day boarding and residential arrangements. The school’s current website provides a step-by-step admission process and 2026-27 age guidelines, while its homepage is already advertising 2027-28 admissions.

A current school-issued Meeyannoor fee table was not publicly available in a form that could be reliably verified. Public school directories commonly quote roughly ₹2 lakh yearly for day schooling and ₹4 lakh for boarding, but these figures are not an official DPS Kollam invoice and should be used only for broad budgeting.

Admission Process at DPS Kollam

Online registration for a new academic year normally begins in August. The first step is an enquiry, after which an admission coordinator contacts the family and guides them through the application form and supporting documents.

The initial document set includes the child’s birth certificate, passport-size photograph and vaccination or immunisation card. The child then attends an interaction or aptitude test according to the grade. Once admission is cleared, fee payment secures the seat.

After selection, further documents can include Aadhaar cards of the child and parents, previous-school reference letter from Grade VI upwards, Transfer Certificate for Grade II and above, passport/visa records for foreign nationals and a no-dues certificate from the previous school. Parents considering residential admission should also ask for the current hostel rules and inclusions.

Registration fee: The current admission information lists a ₹2,000 registration fee, payable for online registration or for collecting the offline application form, and states that it is non-refundable. Parents should confirm that the same amount applies to the Meeyannoor campus and the admission session being applied for before payment.

Eligibility Criteria

For 2026-27, the school lists Nursery eligibility at 3 to 3½ years, LKG at 4 to 4½ years, UKG at 5 to 5½ years and Grade I at 6 to 6½ years.

For higher classes, eligibility depends on the previous class, documents, interaction or aptitude test and vacancy. Parents applying under the 2027-28 cycle should use the fresh age dates issued for that session rather than carrying forward the 2026-27 bands.

DPS Kollam Fees Structure

The fee amounts below are expected/reference figures based on the latest information that could be verified. Fees may be revised and extra charges such as transport, books, uniform, meals, activities or optional programmes can apply. For the final and exact payable amount, parents should always confirm the latest fee directly with the school office before admission or payment.

The following figures are broad public planning estimates for the main DPS Kollam campus and must not be treated as the school’s final fee quote.

Schooling Option	Expected / Reference Public Estimate
Day / day-school fee reference	Around ₹2,00,000 per year
Residential / boarding fee reference	Around ₹4,00,000 per year

The actual first-year cost can differ because admission charges, transport, meals, hostel deposit, books, uniform and personal expenses may be billed separately. Parents should request the latest Meeyannoor campus fee sheet specifically; the newer Beach Road campus has separate information and should not be used as a substitute.
