[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Having said that, what do you think is the high-low on the percent of immigrant families who “lie” about this. My guess would be 20% are not actually first gen. Could be much higher. [/quote] There are definitely kids whose parents went to school in foreign countries who are saying first gen with the thought that American colleges have no way to check on where their parents went to school.[/quote] You can tell from the parents career track. DH and I are immigrants. I work for the WB, he is a journalist. If would be impossible to pretend we aren’t college educated. Also, our kids are fluent in 3 languages. No telling yet how much it would help. [/quote]
