SHIRLEY, N.Y. – A 17-year-old Long Island student has accomplished what few believe is possible.

Kwasi Enin, of Shirley, has been accepted at all eight Ivy League schools to which he applied.

The William Floyd High School senior began hearing from the schools March 27.

He told Newsday he couldn't believe it, "the yesses kept coming."

Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Princeton, Yale and the University of Pennsylvania all said yes.

Kwasi scored 2,250 out of 2,400 on the SAT. That places him in the 99th percentile for all students taking the exam.

He has surpassed the accomplishments of some of his uncles and cousins who were accepted to several Ivies.

Kwasi hasn't decided where he'll attend.

Yeah, that's a tad pricey, probably even more if you aren't a resident in the state

Yeah, $60K/year is a bit on the extreme side, especially with no guarantee of a job once you graduate. Nice way to start your life, a quarter million in debt.

Except the "native" women, right Hal?

At least they weren't when I was in Calgary back in 1990.

For 30 dollars and a pack of smokes, you can get a girl with upwards of 10 teeth and a nervous spasm in her right hand
