Teen with Down Syndrome is overjoyed when she finds out she is going to her dream school

Rachel Grace, who has Down Syndrome, recently received her letter of acceptance to East Stroudsburg University.

Rachel was considering four schools for those with special needs but liked the thought of moving out and being independent.

So she decided to apply to ESU and someone recorded the exact moment Rachel opened her acceptance letter.



Her eyes were wide while her face was full of shock and excitement, screaming: “I got in! I’m going to college!”

East Stroudsburg University was just as excited about having Rachel join in, sharing a video of her opening her acceptance letter on their page with the message:

“Welcome to ESU Rachel Grace! We are lucky to call you a Warrior!”

Excuse me while I happy-sob violently into my pillow.
