RIDE and RISLA’s College Planning Center want you to get an early start.  The College Planning Center has been providing “free” FAFSA completion assistance since 1998 and want to get their appointment calendar filled early so they can help as many families as possible.

Plan ahead and book your appointment today.  Appointments are free and available 7 days a week.  Spanish speaking counselors available upon request.

CCRI 

If you are sure you are attending CCRI (CCRI Link) next fall,  feel free to complete the online application at anytime.  The sooner the better to begin the admissions process.  Also, even though the Promise Program  (RI Promise Link) is available for all students, parents must complete the FAFSA (FAFSA Link)  form for their child to allow the appropriate funds to be awarded to the students who qualify for financial assistance.  Who knows, your child could qualify for additional money for books.
