Did she really though? Because isn’t Johns Hopkins focused on Medical Science? Plus we know by her own words and her mother’s she attended Tisch and then dropped out after only a year. And she lived as a waitress and gogo dancer in New York from 19/20 after dropping out.

John Hopkin’s runs a summer program for academically gifted youth, which is what the article + OP are referring to

Ahhh ok, I was wondering. Maybe she went in the summer before she quit Tisch.

I think I was in elementary school … I remember taking a placement exam or an admissions test for a local school and part of the evaluation was to write a biography … I really enjoyed the process, so when I was done with the exam I asked for more biography sheets so I could write bios for my family members until the time ran out :laughga: Not sure if that had anything to do with the invitation, but Baltimore is a pretty tight-knit town so who knows … I didn‘t even know the program existed until much later when my mom mentioned it … we went to summer camp at Luigi‘s rival school, small world—timey times!

Very cool stuff.

 

I just would assume a gifted program at one of the top research Universities in the world would be like super hard to get into.

It might have been :laughga: Baltimore‘s a pretty smart town and/or it has really incredible schools from elementary all the way through universities (our pre-school was on a college campus), and I think most of our peers / classmates / parents have multiple degrees from top unis, so it‘s just the local standard … and it‘s a quite culturally significant city (the Star-Spangled Banner was penned at Ft. McHenry on the Harbor), and it‘s a stone‘s throw from D.C. … so it‘s got a humble wisdom to its inner workings … so, maybe super hard is subjective … like it‘s probably super hard to get into Harvard, but a few of my immediate family members got accepted … it‘s all relative I guess 

Thanks for the thread, I completely zoned on that lil‘ scholastic chapter in the early years!

Is it true she was accepted into Juilliard at age 11 but her parents decided to put her in catholic school?
