The Nepantla Program at Nevada State University is dedicated to providing opportunities and support to students who are first-generation college students. Our program is designed to academically prepare and empower students to succeed in their higher education journey. This upcoming summer, in addition to living on campus as part of an all-NEW living-learning community, our programming will focus on the identities and histories of Latine people.
