UKids - Child Care Programs Application

Welcome to UKids Child Care!  Apply Now!

Thank you for your interest in UKids Child Care Programs.  All applications are processed online, via this webpage; priority is given to families who are currently affiliated with the University of Utah. Due to the high volume of applications, UKids maintains a waiting list.  This waitlist is for all 3 of our center locations.  Once you join the waitlist, you are eligible for placement in any of the UKids Child Care Centers. Your child will be placed on our waiting list when a completed waitlist application and fee have been received. 

 

IMPORTANT WAITLIST INFORMATION

View Current Child Care Openings

The mandatory waitlist application fee for on-campus UKids Child Care Centers (Presidents Circle, East Village, and Guardsman Way) is as follows:

  • $100.00 per family.  This is a one-time, non-refundable fee (Presidents Circle Full-Time, East Village, and Guardsman Way). 
    Please make sure you are applying for the correct program as this fee is NOT REFUNDABLE.  

Families will be notified of an available childcare spot through both email and a phone call. If a family declines an offered spot on two occasions for any reason, or fails to respond to an offer in a timely manner, they will be removed from the waitlist.

To rejoin the waitlist, families must submit a new application and pay a 50% reduced waitlist fee. Please contact our Enrollment Assistant at ukidswaitlist@sa.utah.edu before submitting your second application.

The $100 waitlist fee will be applied toward your first month's tuition upon acceptance of a spot.

For tuition rates or any other questions, please call (801) 587-7932.  These rates are updated every September.

Please note, submission of an application and/or application fee does not guarantee enrollment at any of the UKids Child Care Centers. You will be prompted to pay the non-refundable fee at the end of the application.  

For questions or concerns please contact the enrollment assistant at 801-587-7932 prior to submitting your application.   

NOTE: You can be on both the Presidents Circle Hourly semester email list and the Full-Time Waitlist simultaneously.  If at any point you would like to be added to the hourly email list for the upcoming semester, call (801) 587-7932.
