Are you looking for college opportunities for students with intellectual disabilities? Let's help you get started.
Florida Postsecondary Comprehensive Transition Programs (FPCTPs) are inclusive postsecondary programs for students with intellectual disabilities that increase independent living, inclusive and experiential postsecondary education, and employment opportunities. There are more than 30 approved FPCTPs across the state.
FCSUA staff members listened to the needs and ideas offered by family members and program personnel. The Family2Family Toolkit is the product that resulted from family-related needs, comments, and thoughts.
Most colleges, universities, and technical colleges charge tuition, so it's crucial for students and families to grasp the critical components of financing a higher education. Learn about the options available to cover these costs while attending a Florida Postsecondary Comprehensive Transition Program.
