Financial & Enrollment Policy and Aid Opportunities
Financial Details
TOSCEL Financial & Enrollment Policy
Enrolling a child in one of our preschool programs involves payments of a $75 registration fee and tuition. Prices vary by the child's age and the program in which they are enrolled. Below are the prices for our programs, which run from late August/early September through the end of May.
Credit is not given for vacation periods or absences. In the event that TOSCEL needs to close for longer than a 10-day consecutive period (including but not limited to a medical emergency, inclement weather, or building issues) a credit will be applied to your account.
TOSCEL participates in a tuition assistance program facilitated by the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh. We are currently working on establishing an internal scholarship fund that should be available to families for the 2023-2024 school year.
Siblings receive a 5% discount on the lower-priced class. There are 3 payment plans that allow you to pay in 1, 4, or 10 payments. Tuition is paid on or before the date of your payment plan, or subject to a 10% late fee. The first tuition payment includes a one-time $40 Activity Fee. All classes are contingent upon meeting minimum enrollment requirements. If any classes do not meet minimum enrollment requirements, your registration fee and any other fees will be refunded.
Preschool Registration, Cancellation, and Refund Policy
Registration and Enrollment – Once the session is full, any new registrants will be placed on a waitlist. Enrollment is on a first-come, first-serve basis. TOSCEL always holds the right to cancel any session due to insufficient enrollment. Tuition must be paid by the deadline(s) indicated in the tuition agreement.
Cancellation & Refund - For TOSCEL to process a refund, we must receive a written email to center@templeohavshalom.org no later than August 28, 2022. If we receive your written email on August 29, 2022, or later, refunds will be made after a $125 processing fee has been deducted. Monthly tuition rates are based on the yearly cost of tuition. There is no reduction in tuition due to holidays, school breaks, illness, Covid, school closings by the TOSCEL Steering Committee or the TOS Covid Committee, or natural disasters. Other tuition refunds will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. Every parent is responsible for reading this website and by nature of the enrollment of their child at TOSCEL agrees to this policy.
Note: Registration fees are non-refundable and are not deducted from your tuition payments.

FACTS Scholarship- We are excited to share that the FACTS application for the 2023-2024 academic year has opened on December 15th and close on Sunday, April 30th. There is an application fee of $40 that families will need to pay to apply for scholarships through the FACTS system. I would encourage any family with a child between the ages of 3 and 6 and an income below $113,693 to apply for a scholarship through FACTS because they would very likely be eligible for an EITC- funded scholarship. Adjustments to the income cap are also made for families with children who have special needs. Remember, this scholarship is for next year (2023 to 2024) while our internal scholarship applies to this year. If you are planning on enrolling your child(ren) into programming at TOSCEL next year, we strongly recommend applying to this scholarship!
