The URI CSP program readies students for entry-level positions in college and university settings and for careers as advisors, coordinators, and directors/deans at institutions of higher education. The program is designed in accordance with the guidelines established by the Council for the Advancement of Standards in Higher Education (CAS). The program offers both full and part-time options for st
udents on the university's Kingston campus. The program can be completed in two years with full-time study and from three to five years for those who attend part-time. Approximately 10-15 students are accepted to the program each academic year, which begins with the fall semester. The priority deadline for fall semester admission is January 15, however, applications are accepted until April 1. To ensure your application is complete by the priority deadline, we recommend submitting your on-line application by no later than January 1. This gives references two weeks to complete their recommendations. Applications completed between January 16-April 1 are reviewed on a space-available basis.

Social justice is the backbone of the student affairs profession and the CSP program is proud to the stand with the movement. We are committed to challenging racist and inequitable systems, policies, and institutions, and will continue to fight with and for our students of all identities, especially BIPOC.
Times like these call for some comfort food and for Kathy '20 that means some homemade cajun chicken pasta for dinner the other night!
Smile, it is FRYday! 🍟 You will find CSP Student Ashlee Lindsey '20 eating smiley fries when she needs a mood booster while being separated from friends and family 😊
Julie Gagliardi ‘20 created a playlist of motivational songs: “I figured we all could use some fun upbeat tunes to get us through and celebrate the end of the semester! I have found dance breaks have made working and being a student from home much easier, and these are some of my favorites!”
First year CSP student Matt Denison on what his favorite part of the CSP program is:
"I love how everyone is encouraged to be their authentic self. The genuine connections we are able to make with each other both inside and outside the classroom has been nothing short of inspiring. We are a family here and it makes me know that I'm going into the right field of work with all of these amazing people. S/o to Dunks for keeping CSP running before class!"
What does being a DACA student mean? What court cases and events led to the current state of access to higher education for these students? CSP student, Kathy Fernandez '20 chose to write her final paper in our Administrative Issues in Student Affairs course on undocumented students' access to higher education. She is applying several course concepts in hopes to gain a better understanding of the issue and enhance her practice.
Shelby ‘21 baked a delicious cake this weekend to relax and have something to snack on throughout the week! 🍰 😋 Shelby had all the ingredients at home, but did you know that you can substitute a banana for eggs? A neat trick that can save you a trip out of the house! 😷
In the mood for a smoothie bowl to fuel your brain and body? CSP Student Ashlee Lindsey '20 has a quick recipe for you. All you need is a blending appliance, any medley of fresh and frozen fruits you have on hand, any type of milk you have, and any garnish you wish.
*For this smoothie base, she used frozen blueberries, strawberries, and banana slices, and unsweetened vanilla almond milk. It is good to have a variance of liquid, soft, and solid parts for a smoothie bowl blend, so it does not get too thick or too thin. She eye-balled all of the ingredient amounts before blending, and crossed her fingers that it would come out the perfect consistency... and it did!
*For the finishing touches after blending and pouring in a bowl, she layered on fresh strawberries, blueberries, and banana slices, in addition to granola and dark chocolate chips for a crunch.
There is a lot you can do to customize this recipe, such as switching up fruits, blending in fresh spinach, adding a peanut butter drizzle on top, sprinkling on chia or ground flax seed, or adding protein powder to the base, or substituting yogurt for milk. That's the beauty in the creation - Enjoy!
Thanks to CSP Alums Natalie Sabino (2015), Athina Chartelain (2014) and Lizette Zajko (2015) for joining the professional seminar class last night. They shared their journeys and offered helpful advice to soon-to-be CSP graduates.
Last night we had the privilege of speaking with , social justice advocate and scholar! It was so great hearing his story and experience, both in and out of the field of higher education, and he offered some fantastic advice on how to strive for equity as a leader and “trans*form” higher ed. Among others, he suggested, “never let your imagination die.” Thank you T.J.!!

I am grateful every day for the amazing students in the URI CSP Program. I was terrified to teach "on line"--but it is going great. CSP students are engaged, thoughtful, and engaged They're also eager to talk about how to support one another and the undergraduates they work with. So proud!
