61传媒

The First-Generation@61传媒program is designed for students whose parent(s)/guardian(s) have not received a bachelor’s degree from a 4-year institution in the United States. This student community is comprised of those who will be the first in their families to receive a bachelor’s degree from a 4-year institution in the United States.

Unable to rely on the experiences of their family as a guide, these students are tasked with navigating testing, admissions, financial aid, and housing on their own鈥攁nd that鈥檚 all before classes begin. 鈥淔irst-Gen鈥� guides 61传媒students through their first year and beyond through exposure to faculty, resources, and workshops. The program also strives to help students build community and bring awareness to issues surrounding first-generation students, faculty, and staff at 61传媒and move toward successful navigation. While the program is completely voluntary, it is a valuable opportunity to connect with other students and future mentors!
