Grace Van Patten as Lucy Albright
Grace Van Patten stars as Lucy, an incoming freshman at Baird College who is eager to escape the grasp of her overprotective mother. The New Englander meets her roommate, Macy, and enthusiastic hallmates Pippa and Bree. Despite insecurities of not easily connecting with others, which earned her the nickname “ice queen” in high school, when Stephen catches her eye at a party, her feelings are anything but subtle.
With roles in “Under the Silver Lake” and “Maniac,” Patten was a breakout star in “Nine Perfect Strangers,” also on Hulu.

Jackson White as Stephen DeMarco
Jackson White co-stars as Stephen DeMarco, an upperclassman at Baird who weaves himself into a love triangle — or maybe even a quadrangle — as he gets involved with Lucy while still balancing a tumultuous relationship with his ex, Diana. Coming from a middle class background, Stephen can’t relate to his peers’ extravagant trips abroad or ability to take an unpaid internship, so he instead lies, building an intricate web of manipulation to keep everyone happy — except himself.
White’s previous credits include “Mrs. Fletcher,” “Ambulance” and “The Middle.”

Sonia Mena as Pippa
Sonia Mena plays Pippa, a precocious freshman who seems to know a bit too much about everything. Pippa pretty much immediately begins a relationship with Wrigley, giving her access to upperclassmen parties and drawing her away from Lucy and Bree. The distance between her and her friends is widened when Wrigley tells her a secret she must keep from her new best friends.
You might have seen Mena before in “Freezerburn,” “Feral” and “Search Party.”

Catherine Missal as Bree

Jessica Capshaw as CJ Albright
Jessica Capshaw joins the cast as CJ Albright, Lucy’s mom. While CJ admits that the two might need some space while driving Lucy to college, it’s clear she still loves Lucy, as she sends her care packages and calls to check in. However, Lucy is still holding onto a grudge related to something her mom did, likely in relation to her father, who we are not certain is alive.
You might have seen Capshaw in “Holidate,” “Grey’s Anatomy” or “The L Word.”
