Admissions Criteria
Admissions Procedure
The admissions process is broken down into four basic parts: Phone Contact, Referral, Interview, and Admission.
Interview
All students will be interviewed on campus by members of the Admissions Committee, which may include: the Executive Director, Clinical Director, and/or Residential Directors.
The interview helps to determine the applicant’s motivation, emotional and behavioral stability, goals for the future and communication skills.
A decision will generally be made within 7-10 days of the interview as to whether or not our program can meet the needs of the applicant.
If the Admissions Committee determines that the referred student is appropriate for admission, a contract, medical forms and a Student Handbook will be sent to the applicant.
You will be informed of our decision by phone and letter. Also, upon acceptance you will receive a Registration Packet including information about Spectrum College Transition Program and the mandatory forms that need to be completed and returned.
Admission
Once a student is accepted, and the required deposit has been received, an admission date can be established.
Students may be admitted in Fall/Spring/Summer Semesters.
*New students are required to bring a laptop with a wireless internet card.
