Ifeoma White-Thorpe: New Jersey teen gets accepted by all 8 Ivy League schools
Ifeoma White-Thorpe was shocked when she got her eighth acceptance letter to an Ivy League school. She had applied to every single Ivy League university, and all eight of them wanted her.
“I was like, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, like this might be eight out of eight and I clicked it and it said ‘Congratulations’ and I was like oh my goodness!” White-Thorpe told CNN affiliate WABC-TV.
White-Thorpe had applied to all eight schools because she wants to study biology and ultimately get a global health career. Since all of the Ivy League schools “have great research facilities,” she applied to all of them.
But now she has a decision to make.
According to her parents, the decision is hers alone, but she hadn’t chosen yet. No matter the choice, though, we’re extending our congratulations to Ifeoma. Way to go!
