The CSUSB Children's Center offers different tuition funding options depending on families needs. We offer state-funding to families that qualify according to income eligibility and California Department of Education and Department of Social Services priorities. We also support CSUSB student parents with CCAMPIS funding that provides care while students are in class. In addition, families may pay full-cost tuition to attend our center. We do not have a registration fee to apply for our waitlist applications.
Subsidized fees are available for families who qualify. Subsidized care is offered when family income meets specific criteria established by the State of California. We require specific paperwork and documentation to confirm eligibility to receive state-funding.
| Family Size | Monthly Income Limit |

| 3 | $7,785 |
| 4 | $9,020 |
| 5 | $10,463 |

Prior to enrollment and at 12 month intervals, you will be required to provide:
- 2 months of consecutive pay stubs for the most recent pay periods prior to enrollment
- If self-employed, a signed statement of income and expenses for the year to date
- Court-ordered child support documents, if applicable, or affidavit of child/spousal support
- Documentation of cash aid, unemployment checks, or disability payments, if applicable
- If seasonally employed, verification of income for the 12 months prior to enrollment
- Verification of any other income such as periodic gifts
- Documentation of any child support which you pay
- If a single parent, self-certification that you are the sole caregiver of the child
You are also required to verify:
- All family members in your household
- This includes birth certificates for all other siblings of the child
- If the other parent does not live at home, you will need to indicate this under penalty and perjury
- Your current address and phone number
- Student I.D. number (if applicable)
Student families may be eligible for subsidized tuition through our CCAMPIS grant. CCAMPIS covers care while you are in class and studying. If you are a CSUSB student enrolled for Spring, Pell-eligible, and interested in applying for CCAMPIS funding, please indicate your interest on the waitlist application.
If you are accepted for admissions, you will be given a CCAMPIS application to complete. All student parents must submit a copy of their CSUSB class schedule prior to their child's admittance to the center. Class schedules must be turned in for your child's application to be considered complete. CCAMPIS will only cover child care costs for times when class is in session.
NEW FOR STUDENT PARENTS: Student parents whose children are not admitted may be eligible for Virtual Services, which will include materials for parent led activities, virtual circle times, and parent support. If interested, please indicate "yes" on your application. Interest in virtual services will not effect your child's waitlist status.
