Now, THIS is a WONDERFUL news story. Amidst all of the violence and other bad news, I would like to see more stories like these. Congratulations, family!😊👋🏾👨🏾‍⚕️

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.

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

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!

He’s a child prodigy! Him and his brother! He’s gonna go far in life. Bless him and his beautiful family that raised him so well. ✨💗

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.

That little guy is going to go places in life and it's nice to hear some good news for once

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! :-)

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. 🙆🏽‍♀️

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 🙏

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!

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

Congratulations to him God bless him

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

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🙏🏽

AS A PARENT AND A GRANDPARENT THAT LOVES HIS FAMILY ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW!!! ENOUGH SAID!!! PLEASE GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS THIS FAMILY AND GIVE THOSE PARENTS DIRECTION!!! PEACE!!!!

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.

Keep rising and shining young man 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

This is how you parent👍🇺🇸

Casually ends off saying “oh yeah Harvard and Yale” holy crap he is humble

What a wonderful story! Congratulations to him on his academic pursuits and May the world greet him with joy!

Congratulations god bless you and ur family

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!

Curtis is showing you how it's done. Good work, man. 🖖😎👍

Good on you young man.

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.

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.

Awesome !! Good luck buddy

It is so nice to hear a good story for a change.

Amazing, kid has got a bright future ahead of him

He’s so young to be in college! I hope he does well!

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏿👏🏿👏🏽👏🏽👏🏿👏🏿 CONGRATULATIONS !!!

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!

Congratulations sir! 💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛💚🐍 FAMU!!!
