<p>To the OP's original point, don't worry about it - if you deliver the goods with respect to stats, ECs,and essays, you'll get into plenty of good schools even though your parents are well-educated and prosperous. I worried about this when my daughter was applying. She hadn't faced any big adversities. I felt like her parents' education was an unfair burden that might be held against her. But it turned out to not be much of an issue as far as I can tell. She didn't get into every school, but she had many fine acceptances from which to choose.</p>
<p>Believe me, in general when it comes to getting into college, you are far better off to have had educated and prosperous parents. Without them you very well might not even be thinking about college right now.</p>
