The First Generation Plus Success Center at USC serves as a resource hub for first-generation, undocumented, transfer, and former foster youth students. We foster a sense of belonging and well-being through intentional programming, mentorship, and access to resources that support students throughout their college journey.
Vision
To cultivate a USC community where first-generation, undocumented, transfer, and former foster youth students feel empowered to lead, supported in their identities, and equipped to thrive academically, personally, and professionally.
