14 years older, $1.6 million in scholarships, and accepted at 14 colleges (Harvard, Yale!), that’s just incredible. I can’t wait to see how he changes the world.

Why he say 16

The world needs more stories like this...Amazing kids....And parents...How proud you make us all....RESPECT from South Africa

I found this pretty relatable graduating from high school at 16 and getting my bachelors this summer at 20. Its DEFINITELY not a route I recommend for everyone as you'll be leaving your friends behind and entering an enviroment where you're expected to act like a responsible adult. The kid in the video seems to be pretty mature and had solid goals like getting a PHD so I have no doubt he'll suceed.

Finally a story that puts a smile on your face and a spark in your heart. Congratulations! young man, wish you well in your new endeavors. I can tell your parents are extremely proud!

What a amazing child I am even proud of him.. And finally a news story that does not have nothing to do with doom and gloom

God please protect this young man and his family so that they may continue to see the greatness in his future. Bless him with continued success 🙏

Wow!!!! 🤩🥳🤓 We tip out hats 🎩 in honor!! These young AA boys, students, and future successes are needed mentors for us. The parents have certainly passed the great achievement baton. 🙌🏽👏🏽🤜🏾🤛🏽💗. All the best to this family and all others who’re making a positive contribution to society. 🙆🏽‍♀️

The parents of this young man did *such* an outstanding job, and he is doing an outstanding job himself! Go, parents! Go, Curtis! :-) I live near the D.C. area, and this is such a beautiful and inspiring story that it makes this middle-aged man cry tears of joy! :-)

Congratulations to him God bless him

Passing over Harvard and Yale I think was good because he is black and a HBCU is what our black youth need if going to college. I'm glad the name of the institution didn't have influence on his decision. Great choice for FAMU🙏🏽

Legit got teary-eyed when they started celebrating for him. That is damn impressive!

This is amazing! Best wishes to this young man. His future is very bright!

Let’s protect this Smart Guy!!! Would love for him to meet Tahj!!

Why does the title say 14 when he introduced himself as 16? Either way its an awesome accomplishment. Congratulations!! Good luck with all future endeavors.

Congrats young man ! Wish there was more like you.

Great to have role models as Parent's which a lot of kids unfortunately don't have.😦

Thank you for sharing this positive image of our black boys. Now, Black society we must paint our own narratives of our black men women and children, and stop them from showing negative images of our black people.

wow I'm glad this is becoming a TREND!!! SHAQ's son will be Going to TSU

Wow young man! I'm still crying my head off. I watched with my 4yr old son and I can see even more of a drive in his eyes. I'm so proud of him. I know his family especially his mom is floating from happiness. Represent honey. And please please please please, stay super safe. Precious cargo!

Awesome job kiddo! Make us all proud! Your hard work has paid off so far, and will continue to pay off as you continue to grow in life!

I am so proud of you. Congratulations!!! Wishing you much success in all your future endeavors.

When I was 16 I had 40 credits and was a junior and they refused to graduate me early, so when I got out of high-school I had 48 credits. The school system is a joke.

This is incredible, but also going to be very difficult journey for him to navigate being so young in comparison to his peers. Really heart warming to seeing a story like, and see POC painted in an aspirational light for once in the media.

I cried at the end. Im happy for him

How wonderful!!! Prayers he goes on to cure cancer or something equally astounding!!! Love news like this! Imagine what would happen if all news story were focused on the good going on!

I’m also going to finish high school at 14, but the high school course I’m taking continues to college so I don’t get a break, but that doesn’t bother me really. I’m going to try and get into a good university back in my home-state Michigan after I finish high school and college abroad.
