Student Registration

This summit is all about you, celebrating the first-generation college student experience at both 2-year and 4-year schools, and giving you the support and resources to thrive. Through interactive sessions led by first-gen students, alumni, and allies, you’ll gain practical tools for academic success, leadership growth, and personal development.

You’ll also be part of a supportive community that encourages you to take ownership of your educational and career journey with confidence. 

This summit is for first-gen college students from California’s Central Coast (Ventura County to Monterey County). We’re excited to create a space that celebrates and supports our local community with you!
