The mission of the Foundations Program at Mercyhurst is to educate college students with Autism Spectrum Disorder. It is our goal that our Foundation students will acquire skills that will assist with the transition from high school to college. They will learn and experience the differences that exist between living at home and living in a residence hall. They will adapt to noises in the residence halls and learn how to co-exist with a roommate. They will wake up independently, attend class on time, regulate their sleep schedules, do laundry, attend to personal hygiene and grooming, manage money and negotiate problems with other students and/or staff. They will learn appropriate study skills needed for college level work and develop time management skills.
