First-Generation College Students
Did you know 10% of UD's undergraduate students are the first in their family to attend and complete post-secondary education at a four-year college or university after high school? That's more than 800 students — and we are here to support every single one.
This page is a jumping off point to find information that will be helpful as a first-generation student. You can join us for an event or contact us and speak to someone in our office if you have questions.
