Students who have demonstrated financial need after completing the FAFSA and are pursuing a certificate or degree at Brazosport College are eligible to apply for assistance in paying childcare while in college. In order to receive childcare assistance, you must also be meeting the Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress policy at Brazosport College.
We are currently accepting applications from students meeting the eligibility criteria. Funding is limited; therefore, priority is given to full-time students (at least 12 credit hours) and to students who have received childcare assistance in the past through this program. If funding is available, part-time students will be considered at a reduced rate. No award can exceed the actual weekly childcare cost. All awards will be paid directly to childcare providers at the end of each month based on a completed billing request form.
Funds are awarded per semester on a first-come, first-served basis. Students must apply each semester.
Students will be required to participate in a minimum of four (4) activities provided by Brazosport College each semester to be eligible for future childcare assistance. These activities include tutoring, educational workshops, participation in campus student organizations, etc. A full list of these activities are available at the Financial Aid office.
If you have any further questions regarding childcare assistance or requirements, please contact the Financial Aid office at (979) 230-3377.
