WHO ARE WE?
DRIVE is an undergraduate student volunteer organization that works with the URI Admission Department to increase diversity at the University of Rhode Island through outreach to both in state and out-of-state underrepresented students. Our various events allow high school students to experience URI and to learn about the possibilities that come from attending college. We also work with middle school and elementary school students to introduce the idea and benefits of higher education. Together we work hard to bring a diverse range of students to the URI community.
