[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an immigrant admitted to an ivy I was shocked to find out that I was considered first gen (I did put my parents' educations on my applications). My six generations of university educated ancestors were rolling in their graves. [/quote] Both my parents went to university and 1 graduated, but only 1 grandparent went to high school. 3 of them were poor farmers. So nobody will be rolling in their graves if my kids end up being considered first Gen. [/quote] No your kids would not be. First gen is not "legacy" LOL! If YOU were the poor farmer (or even a rich farmer) that did not graduate college, AND your spouse was ALSO, then they would be first gen college. [/quote] I was just replying to the 6 Gen college student that nobody in my family tree would be rolling on their graves if my kids were considered first gen. I know grandparents don’t come into consideration for first gen. [/quote]
