Housing & Residence Life

Will you be a first-generation college student?

If your parent(s) or guardian(s) do not have a Bachelor's degree (four-year degree), then you would be a first-generation college student!

Being first-gen can seem daunting, but you are not alone!  There are about 4,480 first-generation students and a lot of helpful resources for you at WKU.  This summer, join a group of other high school students to explore some essentials of college life and build ties with WKU faculty, staff, and students.
