Hhaha, some people are dying of hate o!
5 Ivy list schools and other top Universities such as the University of Chicago on her list, but to them, they are still "mushroom schools", simply because the girl in question does not have 'yam legs' and a hairy upper lip. cheesy

Guy, abeg tell them say you can't get any more Ivy League than Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Duke and Cornell. If those three could deem her worthy then the haters will prolly go and hang coz the rest na mere icing on the cake.

Where did you get your own degree from? Harvard or Princeton?

CHINEKE. ...you ruthlessly finished the guy grin Kilode!

Those trying to belittle her achievements don't know that all these prestigious schools are very exclusive.

Getting admission into a single one is a herculean task.

And...What's the difference between 14 universities and 11? You would only go to 1 of them at once not all 14.

Kiiiiids, call us the day you produce a Nobel and 10 Grammy award winners then we can talk. Y'all still beneath us. Facts! Please don't get carried away . Applying to all Ivy league schools is a choice. It's not necessary when you are sure of getting into the one you applied to

Sharing in the victory of others instead of fighting for your own. SMH


Am waiting for a day where we will hear of a NIGERIAN, success and all celebrate without igbos, yorubas or hausa using it to fire cheap shots at each other.

Personally I feel it's better to boast of my achievements than to boast of others whether they be my parents, siblings or kinsmen

Foolish people doing Yoruba vs Igbo ivy league school acceptance rate for some kids whose future don dey guaranteed, while our kids don't have access to good schools.

The future generation will, very likely, grow up to hate the current youth cos we just might be the weakest and most ignorant crop of Nigerians ever.

What?

Do you know of Princeton, Harvard, Cornell? shocked shocked shocked

Other Ivy league you may not know are Brown, Dartmouth, Columbia, Wharton. They may not be popular but highly rated as Ivy league.

The only major ones missing there are Yale and the above. I would rate John Hopkins even above some Ivy league especially in Medicine.
Her biology degree is just a pre-med degree.

Most Ivy league will know that such a brilliant student will be wanted by others too.

Funny, half the people making noise here can't even get into University of Maiduguri........
The lady is a Nigerian, and she has made us proud.
Case closed...all this noise making is just bullshit

Both Igbo's and Yoruba's are gifted and brilliant people, this unhealthy competition is not needed. If there should be any competition it should be the progressive type.......

If i hear things like who can build the most beautiful state and its actually done, i will be happy, who pays the highest salary and i see it being implemented, I will be happy......

But all this one you guys doing is just pooo......of zero benefit to no one

Prince George's County Student Accepted to 14 Colleges

A talented high school student in Prince George's County has a big decision to make soon -- she was accepted to 14 colleges and universities, including Harvard, Princeton and Stanford.

Olawunmi Akinlemibola, a senior at DuVal High School in Lanham, Maryland, was accepted to Ivy League schools, the University of Maryland and several other institutions.

The 18-year-old has a 4.15 GPA and already has earned college credit. She works hard for her success, her guidance counselor, Stacy Kline, said.
"I'm just amazed by her," she said. "It's the internal drive that she has."

Akinlemibola said her family's support is key. She lives with her father, but her mother and two sisters are home in Nigeria, where she was born. In a recent interview, she began to cry as she spoke about her mother.

"Even though she's not here physically, she takes care of me. Emotionally, she provides a lot of support," the student said. She hopes her family will be reunited this year.

Akinlemibola said part of what drives her to succeed is a sense that she has opportunities her parents didn't have.
"They’ve just gone through so much, and it's like, this is like the least I can do, is do well in school," she said.
Here's where Akinlemibola was accepted, according to WTOP:

Emory University
Brown University
University of Maryland, Baltimore County
University of Maryland, College Park
Swarthmore College
Grinnell College
Amherst College
University of Chicago
Duke University
Stanford University
Cornell University
Princeton University
Harvard University
University of Pennsylvania

Akinlemibola said Stanford is the front-runner. She would study biology and, with scholarships, pay just $300 per year in tuition.

Afonjas dragging feet with Igbos as if Igbos are their mate. They were up all night yesterday searching, searching, searching for a yorubaa who was accepted to ALL IVY league schools, they couldn't find one, so they had to go with this with mostly non Ivy schools. Afonjas...get the difference between the Igbo performers 3 yrs in a row accepted into ALL IVY LEAGUE SCHOOLS not one or two as this beautiful young lady.

Afonjas stop dragging feet with Igbos, they are not your mate! If you are man enough to challenge Igbos, agree to separation as confident Igbos are demanding, between God and man, you will know what Igbos are made of...What Israel is doing to arab nations will be a child's play to what Biafraa will do to Oduo Republic and Arewa. Any attempt to misbehave, we will strike your coneheads with Biafraa made weapons back to Togo and Benin Republic. Don't hide under evil, wicked One Nigeria where Igbos are marginalized to drag feet with Igbos.

they are talking of a girl's achievement, this one is talking of separation. well am not surprised, he's Igbo. in that side, they don't have brain.
