Assessments

Spectrum Innovates Pathway Program is a limited access program which employs a selective assessment process for admissions. These include a combination of standard and novel cognitive, emotional, social, and daily living skills assessment and a mini maker chalange.

This is an ASD friendly process allowing students the option to submit a recording vs. an interview or phone call.

Students will receive any interview questions ahead of time to increase preparedness and decrease anxiety - a common interview accomodation for autistics.

The assessment process will consider autistic needs within administering each test.
