“CCRI's Joint Admissions Agreement gives you peace of mind knowing your credits will transfer, keeping you on the path to a bachelor’s degree. If it wasn’t for JAA and my advisors, I would not have chosen a Communications degree. They were truly invested in my education and my future. It was the extra boost I needed.” Mileiry De La Cruz, CCRI ’18, RIC ’20, PC ’22
