About Us

Being a first generation college student is more than coming from a background where one's parents or guardians did not graduate from college. It is about venturing into the unknown world of graduate and professional school to actualize one's potential and contribute to one's family, community, profession and society. The First Generation to College Organization (FG2C) at UCSF believes that providing mentorship, community, and professional development for first generation to college students ensures that our academic community remains inclusive, vibrant, strong, and diverse. We hope to create a supportive community for first generation students, faculty and staff at UCSF, and we welcome you to join us!
