How to indicate first generation?

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application
1

<p>If I put "none" for the section where it asks for the degrees my parents earned, it indicates that I'm first generation right?</p>

2

<p>I think so. There’s nowhere else to put it.</p>

3

<p>Thanks. Can someone else confirm this?</p>

4

<p>^ yes. </p>

<p>No colleges or degrees will basically state it.</p>
