OCT Mission Statement
The OCT mission is to provide an innovative college experience for young adults with intellectual disabilities or differences, while providing transformational learning experiences to university students, college educators, and community leaders.
Who Are We?
(Arc) and Ƶ partnered to create this innovative program, to provide young adults with intellectual differences the unique opportunity of having a transformational college experience as an integral part of their transition to independence. Students participate in all aspects of college life by auditing Ƶ courses, joining campus organizations and clubs, and participating in recreational/leisure activities that are enjoyed by all Ƶ students. Students are mentored in academic, social, and recreation activities through mentoring programs with Ƶ student peers.
