TUITION

Tuition is calculated quarterly and includes break weeks for non-students only.  Students can contract for break weeks at an extra charge of $5.00 per hour.    Contracts are binding for the full quarter.  Summer quarter tuition is calculated on a 4, 6, 9 and 13 week session. 

By registering for childcare you have incurred a debt to the University. Early withdrawal (before the end of a quarter) is considered a breach of contract and contracting parents are obligated to pay a percentage of their full quarter's tuition in accordance with Western's tuition policies.

Tuition for Siblings

Students and non-students will be charged 100% tuition for second and all additional children.

STUDENT INCOME

Income from earnings, as well as grants, scholarships and other forms of financial assistance are considered income when determining student fees.  Student loans are not counted as income.  Please see our Student Financial Worksheet to determine your rate.  Employees are not required to divulge income as they do not qualify for the sliding scale fee.

TUITION FOR LATE ENTRY

Persons joining the Center after the first week of operation will pay a pro-rated amount for the weeks they attend. Charges will be based on their actual weeks of attendance.

EXTRA CHARGES

Charges in addition to the contracted amount include:

  • Hours used exceeding the part time or full time designation will be billed at: $5.15 per hour for students and $7.00 per hour for non-students. They must be arranged 24 hours in advance.
  •  Late Pick-Up: $15 is charged for picking children up after 5:30 p.m. The $15 late pick up charge will be charged for the first 10 minutes after 5:30 p.m. and $5.00 for every ten minutes thereafter.
  • Late Fee Payment: Past due unpaid accounts are subject to monthly $40 late fees and 1% interest charges.

REGISTRATION FEE

Once you are accepted into our program, all parents must pay a yearly $75 registration fee. This fee is non-refundable. Please pay through our cashnet system at the following link: https://commerce.cashnet.com/WWUCDC_REGISTER

BILLING

You will receive a bill for your quarter's tuition after the end of the add/drop period and tuition will be due upon receipt. Tuition is paid through the university cashiers office or on the Web4U.  Faculty and staff parents may make monthly payments through the Student Accounts Office, but will incur a 1% fee on the remaining balance after 30 days.    All charges must be paid in full prior to the start of the next quarter for participation to continue.
