Summary - Four boys, and many, many acceptance letters. As parents across the country work on college applications, this family had four to conquer in one year. Quadruplets in Ohio have all been accepted to Harvard, Yale and Duke and other top national universities. Some of the boys were also accepted to Stanford, University of Chicago, and Princeton. The boys each applied to a few individual schools, but where all four applied, they were accepted. "It's a wow factor. They weren't expecting it, but we always tell them to shoot for the stars," said their mother, Kim Wade. Teen accepted by 8 Ivy League schools Nigel, Zachary, Aaron and Nick Wade are seniors at Lakota East High School in Butler County, Ohio. Principal Suzanna Davis has watched the boys grow up, and she said she is impressed with their ability to be so close, but also forge four independent paths.

Analysis- This article was written by Anne Woolsey and published by CNN on April 24. I didn't hear about this before I read this and this just blew me away. As someone who has older twin sisters who applied to college this year, it's amazing. To have 4 kids even interested in the same school is shocking and then to all be accepted it equal as astounding. Now that they have been accepted the there is a hard decision ahead of them. Having quadruplets is very rare but them all being accepted to 3 of the same ivy level schools is even rarer.
