<p>I mean, you never hear about famous teenagers going to a university. Don't they ever choose to pursue something different?</p>
<p>If say Miley Cyrus or Jamie Lynn, or any other celebrity, were to apply somewhere, are they like GUARANTEED admission? Would they be assigned a random roommate like everyone else?
Would they need body guards following them around campus all the time?</p>
<p>What do they do?</p>
<p>Do you really think famous pop stars want an education?</p>
<p>yeah theyre rich, why do they need college? Bill Gates is an example.</p>
<p>Didn't one of the Olsens go to NYU? I wonder what her stats were...but really, people that rich/famous don't need to go to college, it would be a waste of time that they could spend making millions (or, in Miley Cyrus' case, billions) of dollars.</p>
<p>Natalie Portman went to Harvard. If you are going to college purely to make money, then yes, it is worthless if you are already a millionare. If you are going to get an education, obviously, it is worth it.</p>
<p>Edward Norton - Yale (after that he became famous)
the girl that played Matilda - NYU</p>
<p>I've heard USC has one of the top MRS degree programs in the nation, so it might attract some of them</p>
<p>Actually , a lot of famous actors and performers went to college after their acting careers were already established
Jodi Foster,Jennifer Connelly went to Yale...Brooke Shields , Princeton, Julia Stiles, Columbia, Olson Twins NYU ( my daughter likes to point out the ones who didn't get into Emerson , her school ) I think Hayley Joel Osment also went to NYU</p>
<p>Matt Damon went to Harvard.</p>
<p>I think James Franco goes to Columbia. I thought that famous people would be guaranteed acceptance due to unparalleled ECs.</p>
<p>Honestly, If I were miley or Jamie I wouldn't even bother to go. They've already made millions so far without an education, so it's not like they'll need one.</p>
<p>James Franco is absolutely crazy...
yea he is doing Columbia grad for creative writing
and NYU for acting....nuts.</p>
<p>Claire Danes went to Yale for a couple of years... But who wouldn't accept Angela Chase?</p>

Ironic, no?</p>
<p>Brooke Shields-Princeton
Jodie Foster--Yale</p>
<p>Many famous kids go to college and many do not. It's a personal choice but i'd make the $$$ now and worry about college later. The $$$ is often fleeting.</p>
<p>conan obrien= harvard</p>
<p>I believe Taylor Swift was admitted to Vanderbilt but decided to pursue her very succesful music career instead.</p>
<p>james blake the tennis player went to harvard before going pro.</p>
<p>john krasinski who plays jim from The Office went to Brown.</p>
<p>Miley and Jamie should focus on getting their GEDs.</p>
<p>I think the question deals with people going to college after becoming famous, not before.</p>
<p>Unless you do well and get rich using actual intelligence, I think that everyone should go to some form of college even if it's just a community college.</p>
