Non-refundable registration fee: JD 1,000. Note: JD 150 deposit is added for Grade 12 (refundable subject to NOS administration approval).
Transportation (school bus) fees and billing schedule
- Annual bus fees vary by route distance. Typical annual fees: one-way JD 470–500; round-trip JD 660–710 depending on area (nearby vs distant routes). For one semester only, the bus amount is divided by two (one-semester fee = annual ÷ 2). The service is provided as round-trips only; return trips are available at set school departure times. A 15% discount on bus fees is provided starting from the third sibling using the service.
Other recurring or one-off charges
- Grade 12 additional charges: amounts of JD 60 (National Programme) and JD 70 (IG and IB) are listed as additional Grade 12 charges. A deposit of JD 150 is added for Grade 12 students (refundable subject to NOS administration approval).
- Digital-platform subscriptions: JD 12 for the Kutubee platform (Grades 1–8) and JD 6 for the RAZ-Reading platform (Grades 1–6) are added where applicable.
- Uniforms and textbooks: a school uniform shop and a bookstore operate on campus during school hours; uniform and textbook purchases are additional to tuition and are available at the school (bookstore and uniform shop hours are published). Specific uniform and textbook prices are charged at point of sale.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition figures above are presented as annual amounts in Jordanian Dinars (JD). The published schedule shows early/conditional payment entries (discount columns and a date column indicating payments/discounts tied to being paid before August 10). Cash-payment discounts and sibling discounts are applied as shown in the published fee tables. Parents should expect to see registration (non-refundable) charged at registration and the annual tuition charge presented for the year; semester-equivalent amounts can be derived by dividing the annual amount by two.
Boarding
- The National Orthodox School – Shmaisani operates as a day school. There are no boarding fees because boarding/residential provision is not offered.
Refund information
- Non-refundable registration fees are explicitly identified in the published fee schedule. The Grade 12 deposit of JD 150 is refundable only upon approval by NOS administration. Other refunds (if any) are subject to the school's administration and specific approval; the registration fee itself is non-refundable as shown.
Fee payment options and billing contacts
- The school's published fee information provides the accounting contact for payment mechanism details: NOS Accountant Ghaith Haddad (email: ghaith.haddad@oes.org.jo) and the school switchboard telephone number. The school cashier has defined operating hours. Specific accepted payment methods (for example bank transfer, credit card, or cash) and detailed billing schedules are administered by the school accountant/cashier.
Summary notes for parents
- All amounts above are stated in Jordanian Dinars (JD) as published in the school's tuition schedule and include sibling and cash-payment discount figures and non-refundable registration fees as shown. Annual tuition divided by two gives the per-semester equivalent used when a one-semester fee is applicable. Transport, platform subscriptions, Grade 12 additional charges, and uniform/textbook purchases are charged in addition to tuition. Registration fees are non-refundable; the Grade 12 deposit is refundable subject to administrative approval.
