First Graduate is a program that works with students who will be the first in their families to graduate from college!
We work with you for over ten years to help you succeed in high school and graduate from college, ready to get the job of your dreams. In middle school, students participate in a summer program called Aim High and then when you are in the 7th grade, you go to First Graduate about 1-2 times a week to do college and career exploration, check-in with your advisor, get help with high school applications, and go on field trips!
To apply, you must be in the 6th grade and you neither of your parents/guardians has a 4 year college degree. Your parent/guardian will fill out a separate application while you complete this one! If you have any questions you can email Marcel Glover at
