Academics

Whether they are pursuing a technical certificate, an associate’s degree or a bachelor’s degree, College Living Experience students develop study skills that help them learn better and learn more. CLE offers students with special needs the support they need for a successful college transition right from the beginning.

Independent Living

At College Living Experience, students with learning disabilities master the skills required to live independently during their college transition program. Perhaps more important, they acquire the judgment to make sound decisions for themselves and their household.

Social Skills

As a college program for students with Asperger’s Syndrome, autism, ADD and learning disabilities, CLE provides opportunities for special needs students to become comfortable in social situations. These encounters lead students with special needs to develop appropriate, fulfilling relationships that are successful and satisfying.

Career Development

The CLE Career Development Program helps students pursue post-secondary education, goals, and experience related to employment. In partnership with local businesses, CLE Career Development students work gain to experience that will lead to independent adult life.
