Incarcerated students in non-restricted units can choose to participate in the Rio Salado College correspondence program. However, students cannot always freely seek involvement in education programs within the prison. Some education programs are restricted to specific units at the prison.
Rio's correspondence program also works with the Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP), CoreCivic, GEO Group, SRPMIC, and Gila DRS.
