Founded in 2012, the Goucher Prison Education Partnership (GPEP) is a division of Goucher College operating in two Maryland state prisons, the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women (MCIW) and the Roxbury Correctional Institution (RCI).

GPEP students who graduate while in prison earn a Goucher College bachelor’s degree in American Studies. Those who return home before completing their degree can finish on Goucher’s Towson campus or apply their college credits at any accredited college or university in the country.
