Quadruplet brothers all receive acceptances to Harvard and Yale

Quadruplet brothers hailing from Ohio have secured spots in the Ivy League.

Aaron, Nick, Nigel and Zachary Wade were all accepted into Harvard and Yale, as well as other top schools. The Washington Post reports that all four were at track practice when they received the acceptance emails.

Aaron told The Washington Post that they were still in shock. "I don't think it has sunk in yet," he said.

His brother, Zach, agreed. "Honestly, to have one child from a family be accepted to a school like this is amazing," he told The Post. "But for all four to be accepted -- I just don't, I don't know how it happened."

What are the highest paying college majors?

The Lakota East High School seniors have excelled in school, their principal tells the Hamilton-Middletown Journal-News.

"They are the epitome of academic focus but well-rounded in every way we would want a child to be well-rounded, but each one of them is so very distinct from one another," said Principal Suzanna Davis. "Their individual personalities are what truly set them apart as high school students and as great young men."

In addition to Harvard and Yale, the group has loads of other options including Stanford and Georgetown.

According to the Journal-News, Aaron is leaning towards Stanford -- but the other three have Yale as their top choice. "Financial aid is going to be a big player in our decision," Nick told The Washington Post.

The brothers will have to decide quickly: the deadline to pick a college is May 1.
