Using the ADO.NET Entity Data Model and an ACCESS Database?

I'm using:

I'm currently working on a C# school project that doesn't require us to use a database at all, however we can grab some extra credit if we implement a database.

I've worked with SQLite so far and had not much trouble setting up the connection, however we are limited to Access for the project.

I would like to use the database in an ADO.NET Entity Data Model, but upon trying to add the .edmx Item via the solution explorer it doesn't let me choose "Access Database".

Is there any way to get an Access Database and the EDM to work together?
