I Am First Learning Lunches

Description

Learning Lunches bring UVU students together in a group meeting with a staff or faculty host to discuss setting goals and thriving in college*. See the host list below to find a host that you would like to connect with and register for their Lunch. Come prepared with any questions you may have about your major, careers, and getting the most out of college. Due to high demand for Learning Lunches, each student may participate in a maximum of 1 lunch per semester. Students who sign up and do not attend (and do not cancel ahead of time) may be ineligible for future Learning Lunches.

Some Lunches will be held in-person and some virtually through Microsoft Teams. Unless noted, all lunches are in-person. If you attend a virtual Lunch a UVU meal voucher card will be mailed out one week after the meeting for use at a number of campus dining locations. Email iamfirst@uvu.edu with any questions.

*Must be a current, first-generation UVU student to attend.
