Kelly Hyles, a senior at the selective High School for Math, Science and Engineering at the City College of New York, was recently accepted to all eight Ivy League schools. The student, who came to the US from Guyana when she was 11 years old, she's been in shock since receiving the good news.

就讀於美國精英高中--紐約城市學院數學科學工程高中的凱利·海爾斯,於近日收到了所有八所常春藤盟校的錄取通知。11歲從圭亞那移民美國的凱莉在接受美國人民網採訪時表示,自從她收到這一好消息,她就一直感到難以置信。

"I was really happy. I'm still in disbelief. I am so grateful," she said.

她說:"我真的很開心。我仍然不敢相信。我心存感激。"

In addition to all the Ivies, Hyles also received acceptance letters to Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Johns Hopkins University, reported. In total, she was accepted to a staggering 21 schools. What's more, she told Pix11 that, for the most part, she'll get a free ride to any college she chooses to attend.

Hyles participates in a competitive biomedical research program at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, takes college-level courses, has an impressive 99.63 GPA and is valedictorian of her class, reported.

據人民網報道,在西奈山伊坎醫學院,海爾斯參與了一個頗具競爭性的生物醫學研究項目,她還上過大學水平的課程,GPA(平均分)達到了99.63分;此外,她還是班上的畢業生演講者代表。

But the student's road to success was no walk in the park for her or her family.

但是,她的成功之路離不開自己的努力以及家人的支持。

Hyles and her single mother, Anette, came to the United States so the student could have a better education, reported. The mother works two jobs to support her family — one as a home health aide and another as a nurse's aide during the overnight shift.

據今日網報道,爲了能讓海爾斯得到更好的教育,單身母親安妮特帶她來到美國。爲了養家,安妮特有兩份工作——一份是家庭健康助理,另一份是夜班護士助理。

The student puts in a great amount of effort for her education too. On school days, she travels 1.5 hours from her home in Queens waking up at 5:30 a.m. to do so. She takes a combination of trains and buses to arrive at her school in Harlem, according to . She told CNN that she only gets about 5 hours of sleep a night.

據今日網報道,海爾斯自己也十分努力。在上學的日子,她每天早上5點30分就要起牀,從皇后區的家到學校要花一個半小時。她需要搭乘火車和公交車兩種交通工具,才能到達位於哈萊姆的學校。她告訴CNN稱,每晚她只能睡5個小時左右。

"Sometimes, I wanted to sleep late or go to the movies or a party with my friends, but I had to prioritize," she said.

她說:"有時候,我想睡懶覺,去看電影或跟朋友聚會,但我不得不將一切事情排好序。"

Hyles told that her success wasn't just rewarding for her. "When I got into the colleges, I told my mom, I was like, 'Oh, these acceptance letters are as much mine as they are yours,'" she said.

海爾斯告訴今日網稱,她的成功不僅僅是對自己的回報。"當我收到各個大學的錄取通知時,我告訴媽媽我所想的,'哦,這些錄取通知書是我的,也是你的,"她說。

Hyles hasn't decided which college she'll ultimately attend, but is leaning toward Harvard, according to . No matter what, she definitely has no shortage of options.

根據人民網報道,海爾斯目前還沒有決定要上哪所大學,但是目前她偏向於哈佛。無論如何,她絕對不乏選擇。
