[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an immigrant (white), so no legacies in my circle. However, I know 7 kids at Ivies - 3 Cornell, 3 UPenn, 1 Yale; I am sure none are legacies, URM or athletes. All graduated from public schools.[/quote] But are they first generation. [/quote] All the parents have college degrees, some have graduate degrees, mostly from US, so unlikely to count as first gen.[/quote] You wrote mostly from the US. The students who I know who got in marked that that they are first gen when in fact their parents have university degrees from Asia, Africa, and/or Latin America. [/quote]
