Are You a First-Generation Student?
First-generation students are those whose parent(s)/legal guardian(s) have not obtained a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university. You’re a family trailblazer, seeking higher levels of education than your parent(s) and grandparent(s). We’re here to help make navigating that uncharted territory as easy as possible.
“BEING FIRST GENERATION PUSHES YOU TO SEE THE WORLD THROUGH A DIFFERENT LENS.”
