What is up with Fullerton College? The university I went to it would be impossible to graduate with more than 1 degree in 3 years, and Fullerton is giving a kid 5 degrees for 3 years at college?
When you’re a wunderkind, exceptions are made.
It says he maxed out at 11 credits. It doesn’t matter what kind of wunderkind you are, at my uni you would still only get 1.5 degrees in 3 years at that rate. No exceptions. This honestly sounds like a PR stunt by Fullerton, and not the kid actually earning 5 degrees.
Agreed that it’s probably the school selling themselves, but could be a bunch of overlap? Math 101 counting for each degree, etc.
My Uni only allows like 2 courses of overlap with Majors and Minors, and you need 2 Majors for a degree, or 1 Major and 2 Minors. So even at 11 courses (and it says that was only 1 semester), you could at most fully complete 3 Majors in 3 years, which would end up being 1.5 degrees.
I had enough credits to get 3 degrees from my university in 4 years with a semester of community college too, but they said they only give out 2 main degrees or 1 main 2 minors.
Those aren’t degrees at my Uni, those are majors and minors. 2 Majors, or 1 Major and 2 Minors = 1 degree. Pretty well how every Uni in Canada operates so far as I know.
I majored in accounting and business finance. But I’ve always thought of having two degrees. I could not have majored in business finance and have 1 degree. I don’t think you’re required to even have a minor some places.
At my uni (and most Canadian universities), that would be one degree as a Bachelor of Arts, with majors in accounting and business finance. And You don’t need any minor here, either 1 specialist, 2 majors, or 1 major and 2 minors = 1 degree.
The cousin your parents compare you to:
My siblings in Satan, please don’t give in to despair. This youngster has had a lot of support from his teachers, parents, community etc which has allowed him to achieve at this level. He worked hard and accomplished something amazing which deserves to be celebrated. But guess what? You have your own journey in life and maybe you don’t have the same level of resources he has, and that’s okay, you can still do and accomplish amazing things. Compare yourself to who you were yesterday and take it one step at a time. You’ve got this ✨🤗
5 degree? That’s cold!

He carries all his books in the bags under his eyes.
Props to him!
Clovis will graduate with associate of arts degrees in history, social sciences, social behavior and self-development, arts and human expression, and science and mathematics.
Yeah, well, good luck getting a job with those degrees.
He can do “science”!
I get that sometimes you get these unimaginably intelligent child prodigies, but how is it possible to do five degrees at once? Does “degree” mean something different in America? Did he not have to attend 30 hours of lectures every day? Is this a real university?
It’s an associate’s and not a bachelor’s is what everyone is missing. He crammed 5 2-year degrees into 3 years, not an impossible 5 4-year degrees into 3 years. Especially maxed out at 11 credits a semester
These are AA degrees, which are 2 yr. degrees of general education of said subject.
To my knowledge it may be that classea were able to ‘double’ count for multiple degrees.
This is a real college:
Fullerton College is a public community college in Fullerton, California
Someone else earned four degrees before Clovis, his name is Jack Rico.
Clovis was just nine years old when he enrolled at Fullerton College after being inspired by another young Hornet graduate in 2020, Jack Rico, who at the time earned four degrees at Fullerton College at the age of 13. Clovis said he wanted to do the same thing. Now, he is surpassing that record and is set to earn five Associate of Arts degrees in History, Social Sciences, Social Behavior and Self-Development, Arts and Human Expression, and Science and Mathematics.

Hope he goes back to normal school for a while to make some friends and get laid
He just needs to find Sherry Nugil.
this is what happens when you are allowed to beat children into unconsiousness but liberals wont let me.
Thanks for making me depressed … ugh
Good job! 🤯 😀 👍
I have crippling debt before i was 13! She would be the worst to work with. 5 degrees and the life experience expose as a zoo animal. She will have to wait to be 18 before she can get any real job, and she’ll probably forget everything by then.
