Child Care Scheduling Guidelines

per week of child care or the number of hours required for the class, whichever
is greater.
- If you are registered for two classes, you may register for
up to 15 hours per week of child care or the number of
hours required for the class, whichever is greater.
- If you are registered for three or more classes you may register
for up to 25 hours per week of child care. If
your schedule exceeds 25 hours per week, you may register for the number
of hours of your actual schedule. For example, if you have 15 hours
of class time and 20 hours of work-study time during the week, you
may register for 35 hours of child care.

Daytime students may register for hours of child care before 4:00 p.m.
