A common thread between many our alumni, current and incoming students is: they are the first in their family to attend college.

Students: Let’s show our community that Macaulay is a wonderful place for first-generation students. A place where they will be supported and will thrive. We want to hear your story. Share a little bit about your experiences below!

To create a more welcoming and inclusive community, we invite you to fill out this form to include our new Macaulay First Generation logo on your website profile image in our directory.

After this first step, we plan to gather information from around our community regarding the unique challenges faced by first generation college students with the goal of ensuring Macaulay is a safe, welcoming place for first-generation college students to thrive and reach their full potential.
