With the support from several campus organizations including First Generation Student Union and the Office of Academic Initiatives, Cornell organized a series of events to recognize and empower first generation Cornellians.
A group of Cornellians are committed to opening a Basic Needs Center to aid students who face challenges associated with being a first-generation, low-income student at Cornell.
As first-generation and low-income students navigate visas, travel and financial aid hardships, they call on the University for heightened support moving forward.
Cornell’s First Generation Student Union has put together a guide to help FGLI students identify and take advantage of campus resources.
