Nice! I’m wondering if we are considered non-traditional by any chance. I doubt that there are that many others like us. Im also receiving 8 associates degrees.

WOW 8! Pop off, that’s amazing! Since we are a couple years younger than traditional, I think we are most definitely considered nontrad

Do you mind me asking generally what your ECs are?

And other applicants if you’re reading this, feel free to drop your ECs too if you’re comfortable with sharing–if not, it’s totally okay! :slight_smile:

SAME I graduated at 16 too! We are so alike in more ways than one. Good luck, I wish nothing but the best for you :blush:

No way y’all. I took the CHSPE when I was sixteen too! I went to my CC for 3 years (sixth semester) and am applying at 18. I didn’t take my SAT either. Wow, a lot of CHSPE kids are starting to apply!
