After you submit this form, our admissions team will review your information and contact you to learn more about your student’s strengths, challenges, and goals.

We’ll help you understand whether OPTIONS is an appropriate next step — and if so, what the path forward looks like.

• A clear understanding of whether your student is a good fit
• Insight into how our program supports independence
• Guidance on timing, readiness, and next steps
• Answers to your questions about academics, living, and vocational pathways

• Has graduated high school (or is close to graduating)
• Is capable but struggling with independence, follow-through, or direction
• Has learning disabilities, ADHD, or executive functioning challenges
• Is not fully ready for college or has had difficulty succeeding in college
• Needs structured support to build real-world life skills

Many families come to OPTIONS after realizing that traditional college or gap year paths aren’t working.

You may be wondering:
• “Is my student ready for independence?”
• “What happens if they’re not successful in college?”
• “How do we help them move forward?”

This conversation is designed to give you clarity — not pressure.
