First Generation University Students
For students who show potential and interest in University within families that have never had someone attend post-secondary school the demands of school are often quite different. These students will either have the support of their families and they will feel the pressure of being the first in their family upon which all the hopes and dreams of other family members is rested. Or they will come from the opposite end of the spectrum; they will be from families that think education is a waste of time and these students will face the challenge of doing something hard without the support of their families.
