ETSU offers students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (ID/DD) access to a college experience similar to their same age peers. Typical high school students graduate high school around age 18 and go to college or find a job. Students with ID/DD, however, often remain in public school settings until they are 21 or 22. ETSU is proud to offer a different option for these students--an option that provides access to campus life, post-secondary education and training, a personalized curriculum, and increased employment opportunities.
