How tuition works

What sets tuition

Tuition depends on your child's room, the schedule you choose and how many days a week your child comes. We give you the figures in writing at the tour.

Registration

Registration opens your child's enrollment file. It's paid once, when you hand in the application.

Holding a place

When a place opens, we send you an offer in writing and you have a few days to answer. What you pay to hold the place goes toward your first month's tuition. If the room is full, your family joins the waitlist for it, and offers go out in the order we describe on the enrollment page.

Billing

Tuition is billed monthly, ahead of the month, and paid by autopay or at the front desk. If a payment is late, we talk with you before anything changes.

Help with tuition

Ask us whether state child care assistance is open this month and how to apply. If your employer or school offers a child care benefit, bring the paperwork to the tour and we'll go through it with you.

Siblings

If a brother or sister is already enrolled, tell us when you apply: it changes the order in which places are offered. Ask Gillian at the tour about tuition for a second child, and she'll put it in writing.

Withdrawing

We ask for a month's written notice before your child leaves. If you're finishing a degree or moving away, tell us as early as you can so the next family on the list can plan.
