Ifeoma White-Thorpe has been accepted to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, the University of Pennsylvania, Cornell, Brown, Dartmouth and Stanford
The 17-year-old girl who is a senior at New Jersey’s Morris Hills High School was accepted by Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, the University of Pennsylvania, Cornell, Brown and Dartmouth.

She also got accepted by another elite school, Stanford, and now has to make a decision which to attend.



Now that she has been accepted to so many schools, the hard part will be deciding which one she will actually attend

"We're leaving it up to her," said Andre and Patricia White-Thorpe, Ifeoma's father and mother as the teenager has said she just doesn't know yet.

According to her, she was shaking when she got the eighth acceptance letter.

"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 wants to study biology and pursue a career in global health and she applied to all of the Ivy League schools since they have great research facilities.
