Rhode Islanders can apply for free to Rhode Island College (RIC) on Oct. 15.

The is the fourth annual Apply to RIC for Free Day, which waives the $50 application fee for all Rhode Island-based hopefuls applying to the school’s undergraduate, graduate, or Bachelor of Professional Studies programs. Application fees for transfer students are also waived.

But plan ahead: The college recommends filling out or beginning applications in advance, then saving progress before submitting on Oct. 15.

Undergraduate, transfer, and the Bachelor of Professional Studies applicants should use the code APPLYFREE25 when submitting their applications to have fees waived. Graduate students do not need to use a code.

“The 2,000+ new students who chose RIC this fall – our largest incoming class in 15 years – are a testament to our mission of providing Rhode Islanders with more pathways to quality higher education,” RIC President Jack Warner said in a statement. “Our annual Apply Free Day is one of the many ways we’re expanding that access.”

More information is available on RIC’s website, and potential applicants can also email questions to admissions@ric.edu.
