Studies have shown that Rhode Island college graduates have a much larger earning potential than non-graduates. Attending a college or university in Rhode Island and earning a degree is an investment in your future, and you need to think about a college education in those terms to justify the expense for a degree.

 

 

Rhode Island government and higher/secondary education system has a stake in either helping offset the cost of a college education, or helping students prepare for the rigors of study for a college degree. A good measure of how much Rhode Island government is helping subsidize a higher education is the percentage income it takes a family to send one of its members to school. The lower the percentage, the more Rhode Island is helping its citizens pay for higher education. The percentage of young and working adults who go to school in Rhode Island is also a good measure of how well Rhode Island education systems are preparing its citizens for a higher education degrees.

 

In Rhode Island, an average of 35% of a family's income is spent sending one of its members to school, which means that Rhode Island ranks #49 among the rest of the states in affordability. In terms of higher education, ie. college participation, 36% of Rhode Island's young adults and 5.10% of Rhode Island's working population, ranking #12 and #4 among the other states, respectively, enroll in higher education.*
