College students often face many firsts that begin well before they step foot on a college campus. The entire college admissions and financial aid process can seem overwhelming for most students, but especially for students who will be the first in their family to consider going to college. We will be hosting a live event with panelists from the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, On Point for College, and a Sallie Mae Bridging the Dream Scholarship winner.
