The US Department of Education requires colleges and universities to disclose certain information for any financial aid eligible program that, “prepares students for gainful employment in a recognized occupation”. This information includes program costs; occupations that the program prepares students to enter; occupational profiles; on time completion rate; and for the most recent award year: the number of students who have completed the program, the number of students who complete the program within the estimated duration, the job placement rate, and the median Title IV and private loan debt incurred by those who complete the program. This, as well as other information, is listed below.
Using the resources of a world-class learning environment at UCLA, Pathway's aim is to help young adults with intellectual and other developmental disabilities prepare to lead productive lives in their communities. We believe that everyone has the right to realize his or her possibilities through higher education and lifelong learning. Pathway supports our students so they have a high quality educational experience within the UCLA community to foster learning, establish friendships, build self-confidence and work towards achieving their goals. Pathway uses a "learn by doing" approach. Our curriculum is based on a well-rounded liberal arts education in combination with opportunities to develop essential skills for living independently and future employment. Pathway promotes self-advocacy and uses individualized support to accommodate the different learning styles of students with intellectual and other developmental disabilities.
