First Generation Dragons

Definition of a first-generation college student: “While the definition can be complicated, being a first-gen student means that your parents did not complete a four-year college or university degree. Even if your parents took a few college classes or even completed a two-year degree, you are still considered first-gen. You are also considered first-gen if your older siblings went to college but your parents did not” (NASPA 2022).

First-Generation Dragons seeks to support students who are the first in their families to go to college through building connections, establishing relationships, and instilling confidence. Research has shown that first-generation college students are more likely to face financial barriers and hardships. This scholarship aims to assist a high-achieving, first-generation college student who has inevitable financial need. Donating to this scholarship shows your commitment to retaining at-risk students who are breaking barriers and paving new paths in their families.
