<p>Hey,</p>
<p>I am an international student from Sweden applyin to college in the U.S. Both of my parents have university doplomas, though none of them have studied in the U.S. Does this make me a first-generation applicant? </p>
<p>Thanks! :)</p>
<p>You should look up the def’n of “first generation” applicant and discover why it’s significant at all.</p>
<p>Once you’ve done that, please post what you discover.</p>
<p>No, that wouldn’t make you a first generation college student. </p>
<p>My dad has an associates and my mom has a masters. I couldn’t apply to a college in the UK saying that I’m the first one in my family to go to college just because they didn’t attend a school in the UK.</p>
<p>Ok, thx! Just womdered!</p>
