About Us

91ÊÓƵ’s OASIS program provides one of the most comprehensive support services for students with high functioning autism and those with other learning challenges who would like to fulfill their dream of furthering their education.

The program is designed to help OASIS students thrive in college and prepare for life after graduation. OASIS students are 91ÊÓƵ students first, learning alongside their peers in an academically rigorous setting. While accommodations in courses are provided, the work is not modified and remains at the college level. Each year, OASIS students achieve an average combined GPA of 3.0 or higher. Support comes in the form of an OASIS team for each student:

  • Academic coach: meets with each student one hour a day to assist them with assignments, organization, and management of their studies.
  • Educational coordinator: provides support for course selection/registration.
  • Housing coordinator: meets with students to help them navigate residential life. The goal is to help integrate students into campus life through trips, activities, and club participation.
  • Social coordinator: assists students’ integration into the social activities at OASIS and the 91ÊÓƵ Community.
  • Social worker: provides social and emotional support, assists in addressing individual needs, and offers group sessions.
  • Internship and Career Counselor: run career readiness workshops and helps students find internships that match their interests and skills.
  • Accommodations: for testing and assignments provided to OASIS students.
