By  Amanda Froelich Truth Theory

Many people dream of being accepted to an Ivy League college. Only a handful get in, however. For this reason, an entire class of kids couldn’t help but celebrate when 16-year-old Ayrton Little received the results of his college application.

In a video that has gone viral, Little anxiously waits to hear if he got in. As soon as his acceptance is confirmed, he and his classmates explode with joy. 

Watch the video below:

According to GoodNewsNetwork, Ayrton’s older brother, Alex, was also recently accepted into Stanford University. This is a big deal, as both boys go to TM Laundry College Prep in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, and have been working very hard to improve their socioeconomic status. Reportedly, they live 30 minutes away from the school and have spent many long days there.

Alex wrote on Facebook:

“Our desire is to do great things, but to also push each other to the point we have now reached. I’ve also been working hard in school all my life, just so I’d be able to make sure I could take care of my mother.”
