MARIETTA, Ga. — A metro Atlanta high school senior is bound for big things, if her attention from colleges is any indication.
Jada-Symone is a senior at Wheeler High in Marietta, and the only thing brighter than her smile is her future — she’s already gotten accepted into 52 colleges and has outstanding scholarship offers totaling $1.8 million.
11Alive’s Kaitlyn Ross spoke to her family and learned she wants to study business management, with ambitious plans to get both her undergrad and masters degrees in just four years. Her family explained she’s looking at schools with 4 + 1 programs that would allow her to get a bachelor’s in business management and a master’s in business administration — though it will only take her four years, because she already has enough credits to enter school as a sophomore.
Eventually, she wants a Ph.D. in industrial-organizational psychology.
She’s been accepted to schools including Florida, Howard, Tennessee, Alabama, LSU, Michigan State, Clark Atlanta, Clemson, Ohio State and — obviously — many, many more.
Congrats to this amazing young woman!
