Our Admissions Process

Most students are admitted within a week of applying.

If you’re interested in enrolling your child at a Spectrum Center School, we’re here to help. The Spectrum admissions process is just four simple steps:
  1. Contact us.
    Locate a Spectrum campus in your area and contact the Director about possible options for the student.
  2. Visit the campus.
    We’ll arrange a tour for you, your child, and a representative of your school district. We’ll introduce our staff, show you around our facility, and discuss how we can tailor our programs and services to meet the unique needs of your child.
  3. Make your decision.
    If you think Spectrum is right for you, the decision to enroll your child should be made in conjunction with your school district administrators. If parents and adminstrators agree, you’re ready to enroll.
  4. Enroll the student.
    Once you’ve decided to enroll your child, we’ll work quickly to facilitate placement. We accommodate most students, in fact, within a week of referral.

If you have questions about the enrollment process, please send us an e-mail or call us at (510) 741.5440. We’ll be happy to help.
