17-year-old Ifeoma White-Thorpe has been accepted to all 8 Ivy League schools and Stanford. "Harvard, Yale, Columbia, UPenn, Brown, Cornell, Dartmouth, Princeton and Stanford," said Thorpe, who figured she'd give it a shot, but had no idea it would actually happen. "[pullquote]I was shaking, I was like, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, like this might be eight out of eight[/pullquote] and I clicked it and it said 'Congratulations' and I was like oh my goodness and then I was like, what did I say?" Ifeoma said. But despite how nervous she may have been, she's already established her career goals. "I want to go into global health and study biology and so many of them have great research facilities, so I was like, I might as well just shoot my shot and apply,"
she told ABC New York in an interview. Although the high-school senior hasn't committed to a school yet, she's hoping to gain scholarships for college by the time she graduates in June. "At this point none of the school's I've applied to said they give merit scholarships, so I'm praying that they give me some more financial aid or some money, shout out to all of those schools, please give me something," Ifeoma said.
