A First Generation college student is defined as a student whose parent(s)/legal guardian(s) have not completed a bachelor's degree. If you are First Gen at Tulane University, you have many reasons to be proud. At the Center for Academic Equity, it is our job to empower first generation college students by connecting them to grants, academic resources, and opportunities.

Tulane has a vibrant First Generation College Community made up of Faculty, staff, and students. Join us at our First Generation Student Welcome Lunch for an opportunity to connect with other First Gen students, snag First Gen swag and door prizes, and learn more about thriving as a First Gen college student at Tulane!
