Welcome Class of 2029!

We'd love to help you find out about your College House options as you prepare to rank your choices for housing.  View all the Houses here. Don't forget to check out both our First Year Communities and our Four Year Communities!

Note: First Generation, First Step is paused for academic year 2025-26 as Fisher Hassenfeld completes its renovations. 

Are you the first in your family to go to college?

If so, we would like to introduce you to the many resources and opportunities available to you on campus. Join with other first-generation college students in taking a behind-the-scenes look at how the University works. Members of the First Generation, First Step Programming Community will learn how to navigate Penn and understand the keys to succeeding both in and out of the classroom. You will connect with students, faculty, and staff who identify as first-generation and meet people from offices all across campus who can help you during your college years.
