Meet Harold Ekeh, a Nigerian who was accepted into all 8 Ivy League schools in US

Nigerian high school senior student Harold Ekeh, 17, who migrated to the US with his parents when he was just eight, has been given admission into not one, but 8 Ivy League universities. Presently, he's trying to decide which one to go to. He actually got admission into all 13 schools he applied to, including MIT and Johns Hopkins.

"I am leaning toward Yale. I competed at Yale for Model UN, and I like the passion people at Yale had." he told CNNMoney

Harold says he will like to major in neurobiology or chemistry in college and later become doctor and, ultimately, a neurosurgeon. Harold was named a 2015 Intel Science Talent Search semifinalist earlier this year for his research on how the acid DHA can slow Alzheimer's. 

Speaking about his early life in Nigeria, Harold said; 

"We had a fairly comfortable life in Nigeria, but they told me we moved to America for the opportunities like the educational opportunities.

"I am very humbled by this," Ekeh said. "It's not just for me, but for my school and community. We can accomplish great things here."
