Application Process

If you have any questions about the PSP application process, please contact us.

STEP 1

Contact your DBS transition counselor and notify him or her that you are interested in the Post-Secodnary Program. Your counselor will need to assist you in completing most of the steps necessary in the PSP application process.

STEP 2

You will need to arrange a tour of both the Post-Secondary Program and the Criss Cole Rehabilitation Center (CCRC). Both tours are typically conducted on the same day.

To contact the CCRC admissions office to arrange a tour, call (512) 377-0349. Your DBS Counselor will make a referral request to CCRC for the tour and will need to indicate that you are interested in the Post-Secondary Program.

STEP 3

download an MS Word version of the application.

To receive an application by e-mail or US mail, please contact us.

4. Individual Transition Plan and Individualized Plan for Employment.
5. Release/ Consent to Request Confidential Information or CB-3VR if a current DBS consumer.
