First-generation and lower-income students bring unique and valuable perspectives into the classroom. The Searle Center for Advancing Learning and Teaching offers faculty numerous resources for understanding, engaging, and supporting these students.
First-generation and lower-income students have access to a number of resources at Northwestern that are designed to empower their success. Northwestern provides guidance on financial aid, academic support, navigating the University community and connecting with other first-generation and lower-income students.
With a gift to the Office of FGLI Initiatives, you join alumni and friends in creating a more equitable and supportive undergraduate experience for first-generation and lower-income Northwestern students.
