GLOBAL Inclusive Excellence Program

Higher education has the power to transform lives – opening doors to meaningful careers, financial stability and a richer quality of life. Yet for many individuals with intellectual disabilities, access to college has historically been out of reach. This lack of opportunity limits their career pathways and too often reinforces cycles of poverty and dependence.

The GLOBAL Inclusive Program is changing that narrative.

At Regis, we believe every student deserves the chance to learn, grow, and thrive. The GLOBAL inclusive program provides that opportunity through a transformative two year, 36-crdit certificate program created specifically to support students with intellectual disabilities as they pursue higher education and independence.

Built around five essential pillars – academics, emotional and physical wellness, self‑determination and independent living, social engagement, and career readiness – this program empowers students to build the lives they envision. Using a Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework, each student receives individualized support that meets them where they are and helps them succeed academically, socially, emotionally, and vocationally.

But this program is more than a curriculum. It is a reflection of our deepest Jesuit values: dignity, inclusion, justice, and care for the whole person.

When you support the GLOBAL Inclusive Program, you make more than a gift – you open a door. You help create a future where students with intellectual disabilities are not overlooked or underestimated, but celebrated for their abilities, ambitions, and contributions.

Your generosity builds a more inclusive campus, a more equitable society, and a world where every student has the opportunity to shine.
