<p>I just wanted some clarification on the criteria for first-generation college students and the effect that it can have on the admissions process. I also wanted to know if I would qualify as one. I was born in Egypt, and both of my parents went to college there. Since they didn't go to college in the United States, would I count as a first-generation student?</p>
<p>Sorry if this isn't the right thread, I'm new :)</p>
