Okay, this is my explanation on how this could possibly even be connected
Tristan has graduated from military school at the top of his class. He got accepted to all these Ivy leagues, but he really wanted to go to Columbia. His father, knowing that Tristan would stray away from the DuGray clan, made a deal with Tristan. If Tristan attends Yale, he will get his inheritance early. Steven, Tristan's father, thought that if he could control where Tristan was educated, he could control Tristan's future. But he was wrong. He had forgotten how strong willed Tristan was and didn't take that to account when he made this bargain. Tristan was sick and tired of being Steven's puppet, but knew he couldn't live without his inheritance. So he took him up on his deal. He knew what his father was thinking, but was determined not become a permanent puppet. So for the summer while he is at Hartford, he acts like a puppet, so he could get his inheritance. Little did Tristan know that Steven had no power over the inheritance, Janlan did. So when Janlan passed away that summer, Tristan was surprised to find out that he was at the receiving end of the DuGray's vast fortune. The only thing that he had to do was to continue upon the DuGray and attend Yale. Tristan immediately took up this offer and left home. Before leaving though, Steven promised to Tristan that he would take away his inheritance. Steven only received a small percent of the DuGray fortune and was not pleased.
Draco graduated as Head Boy, but made Lucius "disappointed in him" by not being at the top of his class. Hermione had taken that honor. Draco had been Lucius's puppet all his life, and quite frankly, he was very tired of it. Draco only did what he did so that he could be at the good grace of his father, and even then, Lucius was not satisfied. After graduating Hogwarts, Draco wanted to get away from his family. He acted like his father's puppet for one more month, and finally, he asked for his inheritance. When Lucius questioned Draco, he got a well-rehearsed response. "I want to be big father. I want to live alone and travel the world and meet other great influences. Most of all, I want to live the life of a true Malfoy. I want to make a name for myself." Lucius couldn't be more pleased and gave Draco his inheritance. But Lucius was deceived. Draco ran off with the money and away from the life of evil. When Lucius found out, he had Draco, his only son, killed. Well, almost anyways. Before this was put into action, Lucius was taken in for working alongside Voldermont.
Rory graduated with Paris as co-valedictorian. Rory decided not to go to Harvard and instead, to Yale so that she could stay close to her mother. She received half a million dollars from the late Lorelai I. She is now rooming with Paris, who also decided to attend Yale. They have become best friends through the years.
Hermione graduated from Hogwarts as Head Girl and at the top of her class. After graduating, she was indecisive about what to do with her bright future. She wanted to explore the world and see what her calling was. As much as she loved the magical world, she missed the muggle world dearly. After receiving a muggle-proof transcript, she applied to go to school in America. She loved England, since she had lived there all her life. But she felt that she needed somewhat a change in her life. After spending her life in Europe, making a name for herself in the magical world, being one of Harry Potter's best friends, she felt as though she needed to expand her horizons.
Now, here is the connection.
The Malfoys and DuGrays have never gotten along. Malfoys thought that muggles were below them and the DuGrays thought that anything even associated with the magical world was completely unnatural and disgusting. Steven's sister, Lucy, got married to Lucius's brother, Nathaniel. This brought uproar in both families. They were both so disgusted with each other. When they saw their sons, Draco and Tristan, getting along, they had felt obligated in separating them as much as possible. But somehow, these two secretly kept in touch with one another. Tristan knew all about the magical world, and in a way, was jealous of his magical cousin, but only a little. Both families were very rich and known in both worlds, and yet, not many people knew this connection between these two families. The Malfoys lived in England, the DuGrays, in America. They thought the Atlantic would separate the bond of the boys, but it only made it stronger.
When Tristan found out of Draco running away, he right away sent a message to Draco, telling him to come to America. Draco had never actually live in the muggle world but felt that since has already taken this step away from his family, he could take an even bigger leap. No one was more surprised about Draco's move to America, into the muggle world, as Draco himself. He had never actually seen this day coming. Unknown to many, he too had gotten a "muggle-proof" transcript from Dumbledore. He decided to attend Yale with this cousin. They both moved in together. Tristan spent about a month getting Draco adjusted to the muggle world. Even though Draco was in the muggle world, he carried his wand in secret, everywhere he went.
Both boys have drastically changed. No one would have guessed anything about these two boys. It seemed as though they had acted like complete jerks all their lives to please their parents, which never actually fully happened. But even with that, they had yet to change so drastically as to not act like themselves. They were tall, well built, and exceptionally handsome. They had both defied their family and were both stubborn in many ways.
Richard's sister is not other than Jordan Granger, the ever-successful dentist in England. Jordan met her husband, Nick Granger, at Columbia. They had a daughter, Hermione, who turned out to be a muggle-born witch. Rory and Hermione used to visit one another when they were younger, but the distance got them to separate a lot through the years. There were the occasional letters from one another. No one in the Gilmore clan except the late Lorelai Gilmore I, knew of this. Rory and Hermione got in touch with one another after they had both graduated. Hermione felt as though she needed to go into a new atmosphere, and when she found out Rory was going to Yale, she found herself also "happening to go to" Yale. Hermione conveniently "forgot" to tell Rory that she also was going to Yale.
Cliff-notes on other characters.
Paris and Jess are dating. Luke and Lorelai are married. Lane, against her mother's strong wishes, is in the well-known band, "The Its" with no other than her long-time boyfriend, Dave.

He is dating a girl he met there, Margaret Cho. Harry is the Seeker for the Quidditch in England. He is also the right-hand man for Cornelius Fudge. He is dating Jessica Neely, a girl who attended Starlington, the Wizarding School in America. Ron is the coach of the Quidditch team of England. He is in an off-again, on-again relationship with Sirius's niece, Anne Black. Ginny is dating Neville Longbottom. She is Head Girl at Hogwarts.
*surprise of the century* Kirk Stevenson is married. Yes, you heard me right, the eccentric Kirk is married to a Kimberly Smith. They are just too similar. Both extremely eccentric. Kimberly is no other than the girl version of Kirk.
This story will take place at the first day of Yale.
