Our Young Adult Program Admissions Process

Inquiry Form

Complete the online inquiry form and upload your child's most recent MDT and IEP (required for submission).

Review

After our team reviews your submission, a program leader will reach out to discuss your submission, ask clarifying questions, and recommend next steps.

3

Observation

If recommended, a program leader will coordinate an observation in your child’s current school to better understand their learning style in the academic setting.

4

Shadow Experience

If recommended, your child will be invited to a multi-day shadow experience to ensure program resources match their learning goals and needs.

5

Registration & Tuition

Families complete a 1:1 negotiated tuition process with the Madonna President (cost is rarely a barrier to enrollment) and online registration.
