Overview

Early Education and Care at Salem State University prepares you to work with young children from birth to eight years old outside the public school system. Students can focus on becoming a lead preschool teacher or administrator, preparing to be an early intervention specialist, building the skills to open an at-home child care, or advancing in their current careers.

Early Childhood Educators Scholarship

Students currently working in early education and care are strongly encouraged to apply for the EEC scholarship. Applications are available annually on April 1. Applicants are required to complete a FASFA, but this is not an income-based scholarship.
