High schooler goes 8 for 8 in Ivy League admissions

By Around the Web

(CNN) A New York high school student has made it to the Elite Eight in a different sort of March Madness.

Kwasi Enin of Shirley has been accepted by the eight Ivy League schools — Harvard, Yale, Brown, Columbia, University of Pennsylvania, Dartmouth, Princeton and Cornell — and then some. He will have his choice as the decision deadline of May 1 approaches.

“I applied knowing that going to any of the Ivy League schools would be wonderful,” Enin told CNN. “I thought if I applied to all eight, I figured I’d get into one … but from the first one onwards I said, ‘This can’t be happening!’ I was shocked seeing all these acceptances under my name.”
