Craig McFarland celebrates 17 acceptance letters
A student at Stanton College Preparatory School in Jacksonville, Craig McFarland, is celebrating a huge achievement of being accepted to all 8 ivy league schools. McFarland worked hard to achieve his 4.98 GPA and never got a single “B” on any of his high school report cards.
McFarland has yet to choose which university to attend and can only take virtual campus tours for now due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The first acceptance letter arrived from Yale and McFarland is planning on studying law or medicine.
His mother couldn’t be any prouder of her son as she was a single mom that was dedicated to making her son’s education priority. McFarland is graduating as valedictorian of his class and hopefully can attend his graduation scheduled for July.
