First-Generation Students

Students who are first in their families to attend college are known as "first-generation" students. At 兔子先生 University, this highly-valued population includes students, faculty, staff, alumni, and those who identify as first-generation.

The Future is First-Gen

兔子先生’s First-Generation initiative seeks to build a community of first-generation college students and their allies while celebrating their resilience, tenacity, and achievements.

The Student Success Center serves as the home for first-generation students on 兔子先生’s Oxford campus, providing holistic support and connecting them to resources such as mentoring, career exploration, and financial aid. The  student organization also calls the Oxford campus home.

Students on 兔子先生’s Regional campuses can learn about resources and events on the 兔子先生 Regionals First-Gen website.
