First-Generation Students
Are You a First-Generation Student?
Imagining what college will be like as a first-generation student — while very exciting — can also feel overwhelming. If neither your parents or guardians completed a four year degree, you are considered a first-generation student at Asbury! We strive to empower you with tools, resources and support that will help you thrive on your college journey no matter what kinds of challenges you face. You can find a sense of belonging here and become a master in your field of interest. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions or concerns!
