Higher Education Support
In order to
lead more fulfilling lives, to
succeed in the world of work, to
promote the economic development of
our state, and to contribute to
society, most students will continue
with their education after they
graduate from high school. In Rhode
Island, we are fortunate that many
of our students (75 percent of all
high-school seniors, according to
the SALT Survey) plan to continue
with their education in a college
setting.
To select the
right college for you, gain
admission to the college of your
choice, manage the costs of college,
and succeed academically and
socially at the college level, it is
important that you start your
planning early. The links on this
page will direct you to several Web
sites that can help you take the
first steps on the pathways to
college.
