The percentage of children that go to college have a parent has attended?

There's no single definitive answer to the percentage of children who go to college because a parent attended college. The percentage varies significantly depending on several factors:

* Definition of "college": Are we talking about a four-year university, a two-year community college, or any post-secondary education?

* Socioeconomic factors: Children from higher socioeconomic backgrounds are far more likely to attend college regardless of parental education, but the likelihood increases further if a parent attended.

* Race and ethnicity: There are disparities in college attendance rates based on race and ethnicity, and these disparities interact with parental education levels.

* Country: College attendance rates and the influence of parental education vary widely across countries.

Studies show a strong correlation between parental college attendance and a child's college attendance. However, the exact percentage is not consistently reported across studies due to the variations listed above. You'll find ranges, rather than a single number. You would need to specify the factors mentioned above to get a more precise answer from specific research studies.
