STATE: _______
ZIP: __________
The North Carolina General Assembly allocates funds each year to assist student-parents enrolled in state community colleges
with the financial responsibilities associated with childcare expenses. All student-parents enrolled at least half-time in a Title IV
approved program may be eligible for this assistance and are encouraged to apply. Childcare grant funds may be awarded to
students with demonstrated financial need as determined by the FAFSA and who meet other eligibility
requirements.
WCC student-parents who wish to be considered for childcare assistance should complete this application and return it to the
Financial Aid Office. Funding is limited; therefore, submission of an application does not guarantee that funds will be
awarded. PLEASE NOTE — the awarding process will not begin until funding levels for 2020-2021 have been released by the
state; for that reason, award notices typically are not issued until AFTER Fall classes begin.
INSTRUCTIONS: Complete this application using blue or black ink, attach a copy of the birth certificate for each child who
requires childcare services, sign, and return the completed package to the WCC Financial Aid Office.
