Enrollment Process

Inquiry

Interested families may inquiry in many ways.  Whether by phone, email, written correspondence, or word of mouth, a member of our administrative team will be happy to answer any of your questions.  Feel free to call our main number at 202.363.7380 or send an email to dmason@saecc.org.

Information Sessions

Most Fridays, at 11:00AM, in the small library of St. Alban’s Parish, St. Alban’s Early Childhood Center (SAECC) provides families with a comprehensive information session.  The tour is scheduled for 1 hour.  The first half includes a 30 minute overview and the second half involves a tour of the facility, tour of the grounds, and a question and answer segment.  Since the sessions fill up quickly please call 202.363.7380 or email Donna Mason at dmason@saecc.org. There is a four family maximum per session.

Application for the Waitlist

In order to be considered for enrollment, a prospective parent must submit an application to the waitlist.  After the tour or at the time of interest, parents are encouraged to submit an application to the waitlist.  The non-refundable application fee is $75.00. We do not guarantee admission.

Waitlist Guidelines

We have a rolling admissions policy.  This means that your child can be selected anytime there is an opening.  If your family is notified you will be given three days to respond.  If you decide to enroll a deposit in the amount of one month’s tuition must be submitted along with a contract.  You will be expected to start at the date provided by the school.

Selection Process

Families are selected based on their position on the wait list.  Priority is given to siblings of children currently enrolled, parishioners, children of board members, and individuals affiliated with the Cathedral close.  If you are selected we will notify you by email and or phone.

Tuition and Financial Aid

Tuition rates are considered fair and reasonable considering the current market value.  Increases occur annually.  Parents will be given a 30-day notice in the event of an increase.  Financial aid is provided to families whose income and family size either falls within the national poverty line and or below the DC living wage scale.
