Preparing and inspiring Rhode Island students to become the first in their families to attend and complete college.

Students
College Crusade prepares students for postsecondary education, from middle school all the way through their early years of college.

Families
We engage, empower and educate College Crusade parents so they can support their child’s readiness for postsecondary education.

Admissions
First-generation students from six urban communities in Rhode Island can apply for the College Crusade program.
Rhode Island’s most comprehensive college readiness program
The mission of the College Crusade is to prepare and inspire young people in Rhode Island to become the first in their families to attend and complete college. From the time they join through their early years of college, Crusaders experience the steady, nurturing presence of caring adults and participate in programs that focus on academic enrichment, personal development, career exploration and preparation for college.
