Who are First Gens?
Federal definition indicates that first-generation students come from families where their biological parents did not complete a four-year college degree. When a first-generation college student graduates, they may become first-generation professionals who will encounter other firsts in their lifetime. At The First Gen Madrina, we recognize that this term and definition can be fluid.
We are open to supporting all first gens!
