The Bombeck Family Learning Center offers enrollment options for children ranging in age from 6 weeks to 5 years. We maintain a waiting list at each age level that is based on priority ranking (see below) and date of waitlist submission.

Note: Spaces at the Center are limited. We are not able to respond to every request, due to the large number of inquires we receive. If a position becomes available, we will notify you 6 weeks before enrollment.

Priority ranking

1. University of Dayton family with a sibling enrolled at Bombeck Family Learning Center.
2. Non-University of Dayton family with a sibling enrolled at Bombeck Family Learning Center.
3. University of Dayton family without a sibling enrolled at Bombeck Family Learning Center.
4. University of Dayton student.
5. University of Dayton alumni.
6. General public.

Add a child to the waitlist
