The many variables involved make it impossible to predict exactly how long a family may wait for an opening. To qualify for the SDE Grant, at least one parent must be a full-time UCLA student. If your income varies from month to month, average your income over the past 12 months to find your family's gross monthly income. Students receiving a Grant are required to provide information regarding their academic progress, their financial aid and other sources of income. Updates are required quarterly and whenever there are any academic or financial changes.
Qualified students receive child care subsidies and assistance with finding family child care.

This scholarship was developed through fundraising by Friends of UCLA Child Care, parents and staff to increase access and affordability of quality child care for qualified student families. Families accepting this support pay one-half of the current UCLA Child Care Center tuition. The scholarship year is September 1 to August 31.
