Apply to the Art and Education Program Today!
Our application process for the Art and Education program is designed to ensure a seamless and personalized experience for each participant:
Step 1: Review the Art and Education Participant Handbook to understand enrollment requirements, payment policy, and many more details about the program.
Step 2: Complete the Interest Form to express your interest in our program, share a bit about yourself, and specify your preferred campus.
Step 3: Within 1-2 weeks after submitting your interest form, you can expect an email response with a link to book your intake appointment. This interview will take place virtually, allowing us to conduct necessary paperwork and ensure compatibility with your needs.
Step 4: During the intake interview you will schedule a campus Tour and Orientation. This provides you with an oppotunity to meet the campus team, tour the facility, review the participant expectations and secure your trial days.
Step 5: During the Tour and Orientation, you will work with the Site Coordinator to schedule the participants 3 day free trial. This trial period offers you the chance to experience our program firsthand, while we assess if it aligns with your requirements.
Step 6: Program acceptance is determined jointly by the program manager and site staff, leading to enrollment. Financing options include Medicaid waiver funds or private payment. If using Medicaid funds, your case manager will coordinate attendance days and assist with admissions paperwork.
Step 7: Upon completion of necessary paperwork, our staff will reach out to you and your LAR (Legally Authorized Representative) to confirm acceptance, discuss the start date, and provide program details.
Step 8: Once enrolled, you’ll begin attending the campus according to your personalized schedule. During your first 90 days, you’ll be in a probationary period, which provides an opportunity for both you and the program to ensure it’s the right fit. This period helps us support your success by giving you time to adjust to the program’s structure and meet its requirements in a way that works for you.
We strive to make the application process as transparent and supportive as possible, ensuring a smooth transition into our program. Apply today to begin your process in becoming an Arc Artist.
