CCRI Advantage

What is CCRI Advantage? 

It is a free college success program, that helps students address their developmental needs while participating and preparing for college level work.  

  • It is designed to provide an intensive, student-centered learning environment that prepares CCRI students to enter into credit earning classes. 
  • Students will enroll in either Advantage Math or Advantage Reading/Writing, and will spend 14 hours/week in an intensive learning classroom.  Students will also be enrolled in a 15-week PATH 1010 course earning college credits towards their associate’s degree.
  • The program is community based and provides on-going direct advisement to students throughout their first year in college. The intention is to help associate degree seeking students get the strong start they need to continue on their degree path to completion.

Who is Eligible?
