A 16-year-old teenager graduated college before getting her high school diploma. According to CBS Miami, Grace Bush started taking college courses at 13-years-old.

Bush eventually enrolled in a program that allowed her to take high school and college courses at Florida Atlantic University and Florida Atlantic University high school.


She was able to finish high school and college in under four years. On May 1, Bush received her college degree in criminal justice with a 3.8 grade point average. However, she still hasn’t received her high school diploma.

Bush will be able to call herself a high school graduate on May 9 when her high school graduation ceremony takes place.


Bush grew up in Hollywood, Fla., which is notorious for crime and poverty. But Bush’s parents believed in the importance of education and kept her and eight other siblings on the right track.

Bush hopes to become a chief justice of the United States some day.
