Our Staff First Connect Team

The First Connect team works closely alongside college advisors to ensure first-year students make a smooth and confident transition to life at the University of Kentucky. Recognizing that every student’s path is unique, we provide personalized 1-on-1 navigation sessions focused on your individual academic, professional, and personal goals. Whether you need help decoding campus processes, tackling a specific academic challenge, or checking in on your progress through midterm reports and early alerts, our team acts as your ongoing support system. We specialize in bridging the gap between where you are and where you want to be by directly connecting you to essential campus resources, specialized student services, and peer communities designed to foster your success.

No matter what questions or obstacles arise during your college experience, you don't have to navigate them alone. Log in to myUK today to schedule an appointment with a First Connect and map out your path forward.
