But there are some scholarships for 1st generation Americans- they just dont use that terminology. I know when I registered on fastweb.com they had a few scholarships available for first and second generation Americans. It depends on the country your family is from and if they are underrepresented in college (like Latin Americans). Contact the specific school for more information. <br><b>References : </b><br> True most of the time there are scholarships that use the words first-generation meaning their parents didn’t attend a 4yr university and they will be among the first in their generation to go.
