Generation Pride

Hofstra defines first-generation college students as students for whom neither parent has earned a four-year degree in the United States. Research shows that nearly 1 in 3 college students are first-gen.

Being first can be intimidating but rest assured that you belong here!

There is a community of proud first-gen students, faculty, and administrators on campus that are here to support you and help you find your place in the Pride!

STUDENTS – ACHIEVE! All students need support and guidance; take advantage of the resources and supports available to you.

You were admitted to Hofstra University because of what you offer ...

YOU DESERVE THIS.

WELCOME
