To insert text with (') apostrophes in it, you need to double them (they are escape characters) you can do this.
Code:
Insert = "Insert into studinfo values('" & ReplaceQuotes(PROG) & "','" & ReplaceQuotes(STUD_ID) & "','" & ReplaceQuotes(STUD_NAME) & "')"

Public Function ReplaceQuotes(strValue As String) As String
   Dim strNewValue As String

   strNewValue = Replace(strValue, "'", "''")
   ReplaceQuotes = strNewValue
End Function

Just an observation. If a variable ends with ID is should probably be a number, not text. If STUD_ID is a number, it doesn't need (') single quotes around it.
