Child Care Application - Fall 2026
Eligibility
Children of degree-seeking student-parents registered for classes through SUU or Southwest Technical College.
Enrollment
Priority enrollment is given to degree-seeking single parents. Additional consideration is given to families with the greatest financial need, full-time students enrolled in face-to-face classes, and students close to graduation.
Child Care Tuition
Tuition is calculated based on an hourly rate depending on the age of the child, and then multiplied by the amount of hours requested for the semester. The tuition can be paid in monthly installments, or for the entire semester at once.
Rates
6 weeks - 35 months: $5.00/hour
3 years and up: $4.50/hour
