PAYMENT PLAN (cma Program)
An initial registration payment of $125 is required at the time of application. Subsequently, students must pay a sum of $269 at orientation, then a biweekly payment of $269 towards their tuition, for a total of 5 weeks (4 payments) to satisfy financial obligations. Please note, students will not be permitted to attend class until biweekly fees are fully paid – there will be no exceptions, and refunds are not available.
3rd Party Vendors- NMTC does accept 3rd party payments, however the vendor must pay all fees in full in order for the student to receive their certification. If for any reason funds are not paid in full by vendor, financial responsibility is directed to the student.
In the event a student is unable to participate in the class they’ve registered for, the registration fee may be applied to future courses within a 30-day period. It is necessary to notify us one week before the start of the class by emailing contact.nurturingminds@gmail.com. Failing to do so will result in forfeiture of the registration fee, and the student will be required to pay the registration fee again for future classes.
