What is the Access Program?

For more than 25 years, Access has helped CCRI students achieve academic success. Today, the program provides comprehensive services to 300 eligible students each year at CCRI’s Lincoln, Providence and Knight Campus locations.

Students whose parents never completed a bachelor’s degree, meet federal low-income requirements, and/or are persons with a documented disability may qualify for Access and the special support services that are offered. The goal of Access is to ensure the retention, graduation and transfer of its participants within three years.
