Being the first in your family is something to be proud of.
It can also come with a lot of questions. At SUNY Morrisville, we’re dedicated to help support our students in their academic and personal endeavors.
SUNY Morrisville considers first-generation students to be those where neither of their parents or guardians earned a bachelor’s degree in the United States of America.
Students can self-identify as a first-generation student through the admissions process. Currently, 46.6% of our total undergraduate students identify as first-generation.
