About Us
The Beacon Scholars Program is overseen by Student Enrichment Services (SES), a unit within Campus Inclusion and Community in Student Affairs. SES partners with FGLI students – pronounced figly – who are first-generation, lower-income, and/or DACA/Undocumented.
SES works with undergraduate students to foster identity development, navigate campus resources, and build community.
Through campus-wide partnerships, SES strives to build a Northwestern community that is welcoming, supportive, and accessible for all students.

The most beneficial thing has been the conversations with faculty facilitated by the staff because questions were asked that I would never even think of, and I got information I didn’t know I needed.”
