Upon eligibility, recipients will either receive a 90% Financial Assistance Waiver up to $500 per child (10% of the class price must be paid out of pocket) OR a 75% Financial Assistance Waiver up to $400 per child (25% of the class price must be paid out of pocket). FAP allocations do not cover any material fees. Material fees must be paid out of pocket.
