Abstract
First-generation college (FGC) students at a 4-year University in Southern California were more likely to be Latinx, immigrants, and have lower socioeconomic status than non-first-generation college students. Greater sense of belonging on campus was associated with lower depressive symptoms and greater social support for FGC students.
