Dude, I love how you are able to see the spiritual application to these circumstances. Great Video. It really is touching.
Thanks :)
I'm pretty sure that everyone barely gets into harvard
I would like to see a really ideal student in Harvard's eyes that got in. I feel like those people are other-worldly creatures lol.

It depends on your stats and other factors. A world class applicant has a 90% chance of admission in while someone who is totally unqualified has a 0.9% chance of admission.

This is truly inspiring... I needed to hear something like this. God bless you!
I tend to avoid watching these college admission reactions but for some reason was curious about yours. My niece received her college admissions results recently and was waitlisted at a couple of her top choices. I will recommend that she watch this video so put things perspective. I love the fact that you realize despite your hard work, ultimately where you end up was designed by your Creator.. What an amazing testimony. Thanks for sharing
I love that you turned this experience into a spiritual learning! I’m now excited to view my own Admission files in college too!
Fun fact on applying early to Stanford: it has a strict policy of deferring and deciding so if you've applied scea, and you're deferred to the regular pool.... they feel they can't waitlist you if you've waited so long for a decision. So yes applying early means you can't be waitlisted outright in the rd round.
wait could you explain this further? does this mean that if you are deferred at Stanford, you have a higher chance of being accepted in rd?
@@natsukashiilove2470 i think it more so means that you will either be rejected or accepted in rd, but there’s not necessarily a higher chance in either happening. just that you most likely won’t be waitlisted
I love that you give God the glory! Hopefully, I’ll see you on campus next fall.
just saw your youtube, congrats on getting in! black excellence and all praise to God🙏🏾
I was literally going to congratulate you and now I'm prophetically saying the same thing for myself. Hopefully, I'll see you on campus next fall.
@@johnnytest3230 what abt white excellence
What a humble, self aware, young man. You made my soul smile 😊
Love the spiritual connection, God Bless your future.
Thank you! You as well :)
I have never written a comment on TH-cam before and I can say I've been using it for quite some time now. However, this deserves my admiration. Man, this is the most honest college admissions video I have ever seen (and I have seen a LOT of them). Thank you for being so vulnerable and transparent, Luke. It takes a lot of courage to speak the truth but you are certainly blessing many.
okay that was so sweet. thanks for putting a smile on my face.
You have such a great personality so nice and positive
You were my ASB President in high school! Hope everything is well, Go MI!
I really appreciated how you spoke about God’s influence on the things that happen. It was really moving.
Amen dude. Love this video
Thank you for sharing ❤
Amazing video man!!

MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

Harvard rejected me a few days ago 🙃 but anyway I love how positive you’re in this video...
Yudha Tand this is insane but I found ur insta some days ago (I was scrolling through Harvard’s like on one of their posts) I’m not stalking I swear I just recognize u LMAO😭
XENON F1 ivy league rejects gang 🙋🏻♂️ seriously, LOL... i got straight rejections from 16 colleges out of 17 colleges I applied to🤦🏻♂️ so I kinda stalk all of those who got in this year cause I’m jelly🤣🤪 i’m still waiting for my last decision but I don’t expect it that much. (Being international and poor student sucks) . Anyway are you also applying for college in this round? If so did you got in?
Yudha Tand oh no not yet I just have big dreams but i really do wish you the best!!
@@yudhatand285 how'd the last decision go?
saket naik i got rejected 🙃 but I’m okay tho’, I got accepted to Arizona State, but they expected me to pay about $60k/year LOL. So, I’ll stay and continue my education in my own country.
Amazing video! Do you edit essays?:)
I thought you weren’t allowed to take pictures?!? Congrats on Harvard, Glory to God!
I love how you give all glory to God. God bless you!!!
What were your stats?
Loved this❤ God had everything planned out for you. Bless you.
Hey Luke. I noticed that you mentioned you are participating in ROTC. I have a NROTC and AROTC scholarship, and I'm currently waitlisted at Harvard for the Class of 2024. I was wondering if I could ask you some more questions regrading ROTC and Harvard admissions. Great Video!!
So did you get in?
Although this video is from one year ago, I'm really happy for you! All glory to God. In Jesus name I'll be attending Harvard College next year. Gob bless you ❤️
Awesome video
I got deferred from the Early Action pool in December and am waiting for my results! I really hope I get in. (Thanks for the vid!)
Good luck friend.
I love your story, love Christ. IDK why I’m watching admission videos. I’m a sophomore
Me too! lol but in college
God bless
Thank you for sharing your testimony with us!
Imitation of Christ is my favorite book~♡
I hope my so has faith just like you~^^
May God richly bless you and your mission 🙏!!!
Didn’t u get into all ivys?
Amazing work, how can we contact you?
I completely respect your devotion to god and I think it’s amazing that it can make so fulfilled inside, however I want you to remember that you are strong urself! You are at Harvard because of yourself don’t do urself like that!
Amen. I can do all things through Christ who gives me strengths.
How tall are you? You look tall
there is a divine plan for each one of us. In your case, God put you in Harvard for a special reason which you just need to figure out (if you havent yet).
I have that book! The Imitations Of Christ is a good read.
Are you John fish's freshman roomate
Indeed!
@@LukeKenworthy wow lol
AHHAAHHA
@@LukeKenworthy Is he a fish?
Dude really sound like a nuce person! God bless
Im glad stanford destroyed all its admissions files when it was uncovered that you can request to view your profile portfolio. No foia request can stand if the info is nonexistent. And let's admit this: there's only room for yourself to feel bad about the reasons for admitting you. The only win scenario is if you suspected they didn't admit you with honorable intentions... so confirming that wasn't a factor in deciding whether to admit or reject.
what does RTC stand for?
Nitya Agarwala ROTC. It’s a military training program!
I just subscribed and follow you~^^
There is no deity my dear
“Barely got into harvard” - likely one of their highly recruited football or basketball players.
3+ on sports so no
You’re so cute, I find you very attractive!
Did you go to a Jesuit School?
Nope!
What correlation is there between those like yourself who “just barely made it in” and those who later did not get “punched” by a finals club? Who besides you and the admissions office would know what your admissions “score” was? Why did you seek out your score? I am assuming that you didn’t get punched, but if you did, then congrats!
Apparently Zuckerberg never got “punched.” That may have had to do with his being a “social zero” at Harvard rather than to any other measurable criteria. Does the “impostor syndrome” apply also to “social zeros” with perfect SATs?
people take the opportunity to view their admissions files simply because they now have the opportunity to do so bc of the harvard admissions lawsuit that ruled that bc of FERPA students have the right to view their educational records. it's mainly out of curiosity and simply because you can. not for any reason in particular
You are not harvard material. Just got lucky and you are white with a privileged background.
Thank you SO much for sharing
