Hey guys,



edit: guessing answer is no, but still okay to talk about how experience impacted me.

Hey guys,

Question about bringing up first-generation in diversity essays. My mom lacks any education past high school, but my dad got an associate's degree late in the game-around when I was in middle school. Would it still be okay to classify as first generation?

thanks.

1st generation.

Yes, you would be considered first generation.

Good luck on the application cycle!

Yeah, I think that is still first generation.
