Our Mission

The First Generation Plus Success Center aims to create a culture of belonging and inclusion that will facilitate the transition of USC first-generation, undocumented, former foster youth, and transfer students into college life.

This program is open to all eligible individuals. The FG+SC operates all of its programs and activities consistent with the University’s Notice of Non-Discrimination. Eligibility is not determined based on race, sex, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or any other prohibited factor.

First Generation College Students

USC defines first-generation college students as students where neither parent completed college. The First Generation Plus Success Center seeks to provide resources and opportunities to first-generation Trojans to make certain their academic journey is a fruitful one.

Former Foster Youths

The First Generation Plus Success Center supports current and former foster youth who are starting their journey as Trojans!

Below you will find more information about the Trojan Guardian Scholars at USC.

Undocumented & DACAmented Students

The FG+SC is here for you. We look forward to helping you feel supported and at-home. Come grab a snack, enjoy a cup of coffee, recharge before your next study session, visit our immigration attorney during drop-in hours, and join us for our FG+SC programs geared towards undocumented and DACAmented students.

Transfer Students

The First Generation Plus Success Center seeks to support transfer students through a variety of programming and resources to help make the transition to USC as smooth as possible.
