💰 Maliq has earned more than $9 million in scholarship money throughout the college application process, breaking the previous record of $8.7 million. Barnes applied to 200 schools and has been accepted to 170.
“I was still doing other things,” he said. “I did incorporate it into my schedule one way or another, but I just did it whenever I had time.”
“That school was very, very important for me and my journey,” he said. “...They set a strong foundation for me going into high school, and I think that that’s a big reason that I could say I am where I am today.” “There are plenty of options at the school that I could have chosen from to continue with my languages and being able to strengthen them and continue to learn,” Barnes said.
“They are known for putting out million dollar scholars, so whenever the idea was presented to me by my counselor, I hopped on board,” he said. Barnes credits his parents’ consistent support and James’ guidance for getting him to this point. He said James has been there for every step of the way -- applying to colleges, ensuring his college readiness, dual enrollment.
