<p>What is the definition of 1st gen. college student? I know that if your parents didn't graduate from college or didnt' attend, you are considered to be one.. But wat if one parent graduated from 2yr college? would you still be called a 1st gen. college student?</p>
<p>The US Department of Education defines first generation college student as a student who has not resided with, or received primary support from, a parent who has received a B.A. degree or its equivalent.</p>
