Neighborhood Preschool Scholarship (NPS)

Eligibility

Your dependent children are eligible for Wesleyan’s Neighborhood Preschool scholarship program:

• If your dependent son or daughter is enrolled in Neighborhood Preschool on at least a half time basis;
• If you qualify by working at least three-quarter time (half time for faculty) when you apply for the scholarship and at the beginning and end of each academic term for which the scholarship is granted; and
• If your annual family income (adjusted gross income on IRS form 1040) for the previous calendar year is $86,000 or less (for two children $103,000 or less).

Amount of Scholarship

The amount of the scholarship is dependent on:

• Your annual family income;
• Whether a child is enrolled in the infant/toddler or the preschool program; and
• The number of hours a child attends Neighborhood Preschool or, more specifically, the percentage of the monthly full time fee that is paid to NPS.
