16% of our students are first generation.
Our commitment to educating first-generation students runs deep. 17Թ is one of a select group of colleges that meet the full demonstrated financial need of students. In 2018, 17Թ joined some of the nation’s top colleges and universities as part of the American Talent Initiative to substantially expand the number of talented lower-income and first-generation students at America’s undergraduate institutions with the highest graduation rates.
