Tuition payments are processed automatically on the first or fifteenth of each month, quarterly, by semester or payments in full using your Credit/Debit Card (CC) on file. Tuition is not prorated for absences, school closings and holidays, All tuition payments and studio fees will be processed automatically with CC on file unless notified otherwise.

LATE FEES: Tuition paid after the due date of either the first or fifteenth of the month will automatically incur a $25 late fee. Students will not be admitted to class if tuition payments are more than 30 days past due. Insufficient payments made by check will incur a $25 returned check fee.

All Studio Payments are Non-Refundable: The studio will not provide refunds for tuition, missed classes, class changes, withdrawals, additional studio fees such as registration fees, costume fees, performance & rehearsal fees and/or any other paid fees required by NFBT. Payments are applicable only for the designated time and purpose paid for and cannot be carried over and/or credited for use at a later time.

The studio must be notified in writing by email no less than 30 days prior to the first of any month with schedule changes or withdrawals. Withdrawal notices received less than 30 days prior to the first of the next month will be billed the full tuition for the following month. Student withdrawals will not be complete until all outstanding balances are paid. Late fees will apply as needed.

The tuition chart is based on the first student registered per family. Tuition discounts apply automatically for two or more classes. Registration using Family discounts for students who are not siblings is NOT PERMITTED and tuition will be adjusted accordingly.

In the event that we experience another pandemic stay at home order, business shutdown, government mandates, natural disaster, or other unexpected event that does not allow students to attend in-studio classes, the studio will continue to hold classes virtually. Tuition will remain the same and be due as scheduled. 

NFBT has a specific dress code uniform for each age and division, so there is no need to purchase new dance wear prior to registering and attending the first class. Dress Code uniforms are provided through NFBT only. Dress code uniforms include ldo not include shoes. Adult students are not required to wear a specific class uniform and may wear any dance wear they choose.Hair must be in a slick back ballet bun for all classes. Ponytails, messy buns, two side buns, or braids are not acceptable. 

All dancers will enter and exit the studio with street clothes and shoes. It is not professional, healthy or safe to arrive or leave the studio wearing only leotards, tights and bare feet. Dancers should not wear ballet/dance shoes outside of the studio. This causes dirt and grit to attach to the bottom of the shoe, which will affect the cleanliness and safety of the studio dance floor.
