[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just looking at mu kid’s future high school website and it has a great college related section, with a subsection on low income/first gen. For our school it is if the parent(s) did not attend an accredited school IN THE US which is a great cop out for us. I think if you divorce and give your wife full custody you may be able to wing it. But even then I am not sure. [/quote] That's crazy. So if you went to Oxford and your wife to the Sorbonne, your kid is first generation but if another couple both attended a community college for a semester and dropped out, that kid isn't. Lies, Damnable Lies and Statistics![/quote] The Common App clearly asks for parent education information and schools outside of the US are available to choose from so I'm not sure the information on the PPs kid's future high school website is accurate for college admissions.
