First Graduate

First Graduate recognizes that getting students into college is not enough to ensure successful graduation. To help our students' families afford college, First Graduate makes a financial commitment of $1,000 to each student and consistently seeks additional funding to cover gaps in financial aid and any emergency funding needs that may arise. Case managers check-in with individual students on a regular basis, visit students on campus twice a year, provide financial management workshops for students and maintain regular contact with financial aid offices at each of the colleges and universities First Graduate students attend.
