Congratulations Kwasi Enin. Quite An Accomplishment.

Marp2 · ‎01-31-2012

In the next month, Kwasi Enin must make a tough decision: Which of the eight Ivy League universities should he attend this fall?

A first-generation American from Shirley, N.Y., the 17-year-old violist and aspiring physician applied to all eight, from Brown to Yale.

The responses began rolling in over the past few months, and by late last week when he opened an e-mail from Harvard, he found he'd been accepted to every one. School district officials provided scanned copies of acceptance letters from all eight on Monday. Yale confirmed that it was holding a spot for Enin.

The feat is extremely rare, say college counselors — few students even apply to all eight, because each seeks different qualities in their freshman class. Almost none are invited to attend them all. The Ivy League colleges are among the nation's most elite.

Disagree with your statement. We have two here where I live who have accomplished the same thing - only they didn't get the ""publicity"" .....

Sure ${#emotions_dlg.laugh}$ I guess the young man's high school has better contact with the press.
