Application & Admission
Children must be three years of age by September 15 and be toilet trained to be eligible for enrollment in the fall semester. Each session enrolls sixteen children. Returning children have first priority for re-enrollment and will be enrolled before the assignment of new students. The notice for application will be advertised in The Campus Memo, The Grinnell Herald Register, and The Pennysaver.

Applications are available to families at the end of February. Families will be notified of admission and class assignments at the end of March. Children will be admitted and assigned to a session based upon the age of each child in descending order from oldest to youngest. We will also provide gender balance in each session. There will be a waiting list for only the current academic year. Open positions in each session will be filled from the waiting list based upon the age of each child in descending order from oldest to youngest as well as gender to balance the class until the session is full.

Bills are mailed at the beginning of each month. Payments may be placed in the payment box at Grinnell College Preschool or sent through the mail. Checks should be made payable to "Grinnell College." If payment is not made within 10 days of the date of the receipt of the bill, and the family has not contacted the Cashier's Office, there will be a $5 late fee. If this fee is not paid within 5 days, the child will not be allowed to return to preschool until the bill is paid. If a family finds this payment schedule difficult to meet, the Cashier's Office is available to discuss alternatives. Families are charged for eight months of tuition. [see Calendar]
