The story behind this school is extremely upsetting. I hope the owners gets exactly what they deserve!
This video didn't age well. Rofl.
Best comment of the day.
Anyone with a brain saw that this whole thing was a scam empowered by far left politics that controls the higher education system.
Can someone explain please?
@@bmclg The media fell in love with this school and reported on how successful it was. Now the story has come out that the school is a giant scam.
They faked student applications and grades to get their students admitted. The "school" is literally a one room warehouse with no teachers, is unaccredited, and would threaten students who didn't go along with the scam.
Universities (even "top tier" ones like Harvard) ignored all the warning signs because they were so eager to admit black students. Meanwhile, an Asian student group is suing Harvard right now because of how high those same schools set the bar for Asian applicants.
@Larry Chunk wow that’s really sad and disgusting
It'll be so awkward if someone didn't get accepted xD
LOL!!!!!!!!!!
Yikes, I got to tell you something
@Şahanşah Bnoarg The owners of the school were scam artists, barely teaching the kids the correct material for their age and giving colleges incorrect information which is why they had a 100% college acceptance rate
@@josuahingle no way!🤯
I got to tell you something, promise not to get awkward...
Well, this didn't age too well now did it?
😭😂😂
Imagine what it's like when they don't get accepted
they have a 100% acceptance rate, it was in the video
They meant 100% of students are accepted into a 4-year college not 100% of students into their top college. Amazing nonetheless.
Ayomide Adeoye if I went to that school it would have been 99% lol
Someone always has to bring negativity in a positive situation
stfu ayo you dumb omg shut up kid
My parents live about 15 mins from this so called school!!
Damn shame what they did to those kids

The shouts of joy could be a good alarm ringtone.
Always reminding you yo work hard so that u could celebrate like that 😂😂
I'm about to set this as my alarm!
Well its your own personal choice to wake up to the screams of hell
valarie 254 iiii
Ikr amazing
Yea they were cheering about getting in even though they lied on their app
Jesus how smart is this school
you’ll realize that getting into colleges like that aren’t all about smarts
butt bat Affirmitive action works for less selective schools and a lot of people don't apply for colleges with Afirmitive action. That is kind of rude to assume.
butt bat actually they are hella smart, they look at your academic scores for college smart stuff
butt bat affirmative action is aimed towards white women. They have helped a very small percentage of minorities though.
Tyler Gordon Is this true? because i'm sure it's not but i agree that they haven't really help all that many people
Two years later, they are caught in their lies. LMAOOO
1:07 Teacher in yellow sweatshirt pushes a student to the ground in the back.
Ashton Kao I just saw that wtf
Ashton Kao LMAOOO I'm dying, didn't even look like a hard push, the boy just went down
That is MIke
The physical abuse was noted in the New York Times article today ... along with the school faking transcripts. Sad.
It's now come out that this school was/is heavily abusive towards students, falsifying transcripts to get college acceptances. The man that pushed the student here is the one behind it all.
I was almost in tears for these students until I read that this school falsifies transcripts and records so the students get into top colleges and so that the school has something to boast about.
I know it is not the student fault at all and that they get abused here and that they were serious cheated of a real education.
Hearing the hidden story behind this makes the tears of joy turn to tears of pity. It's awful that they were abused and lied to, and because of that, they will now struggle in their classes and be personally accused of cheating.
Harvard, MIT, Brown, Stanford... (probably all of us know how hard it’s to get in there)? This is entirely WRONG and deserves a full-length investigation. No shortcuts to Education whatsoever!!! So sorry for those kids!
11 months later:
SHEEEIEEEEEEEEIT
This is how I’m trying to be. I’ve got one more year.
you got this!!! work hard and never give up on your dreams
Good luck
you can do this!! try your best and work hard 👏
I hope u don’t get accepted :)
Hanna you will get accepted
idk why this made me cry, but I’m so happy for them
Elle Chu thats sad
all their years of hard work in school, elementary, middle, and high finally paid off, I'd be happy for em too
elementary doesn't count. but middle school, it depends.
Q L they still had to attend school 5 days a week and put in effort for 7 years..
everyone had to and it wasn't that hard
16 Years Old!!! Damn, I thought I was smart with my 5 A’s and 2 B’s. Guess not
Ben Mone Bs aren't good enough when it comes to these things lol
Gisel Lora thank you very much for letting me know
Gisel Lora if what you say is true I won’t apply for Harvard, Yale, Princeton, or MIT like I was planning on
Ben Mone just try to get a bunch of As and a good gpa
Ben Mone however, if you improve your grades from here to the point you start applying could help. If those two Bs are the only grades lower that As you have at the moment then I think you have better chances. Also focus on your tests and extracurriculars!
Watching this a year later is disappointing
Naruto Uchiha why
Janice Mensah because it’s all fake
Whos here after NYT posted that vid
I don’t even know them but I’m so proud 😭😭
Me, too!
that’s what my mom said too...
@@Andrew-cx7qi they were forced to by the guy if they didn't they would get punished and he would do it himself.
hahahhahas suckerrrrzzzzz it was all a fake, and you fell for it hook line and sinker
The teachers made them fake their transcripts
Damn, too good to be legit
If it’s too good to be true, it probably is.
@@unspecifiedunit9126 it was a scam tho
Indeed it was, all a lie, a scam.
I retract all my positive comments made earlier!!
1:05 DID THE “HEAD OF SCHOOL” JUST PUSH SOMEONE LIEK TAHT WTF
LMAO nice catch
How bout now eh???
Lol stupid school
Congratulations! There should be more college preparatory schools available to students.
This is an incredible video! It is a joy to view the elation on the faces and in the hearts of the classmates, as well as the student accepted to the various universities.
God bless each of these students.
stfu you idiot
I mean it’s not that they aren’t available to all students but they try hard to pick students that aren’t there to waste time. I go to a college preparatory high school, and my 8th grade year applying was rigorous because they want people to do to the work and be serious about the school because they are helping you shape your future and be prepared for college. Not everyone can handle it
Oof
mhm
They went to a school that lied about their grades and various other kids and the teachers beat them
This got me cry because of joy...good luck on the future guys
Too bad the Washington Post doesn't do any journalism...thanks NYT for getting the job done
Yikes, did the comments on this post not age well..
Well um, this is awkward a year later
Black excellence at its finest
im not even black but YASSSS
so proud of these students and I don't even know them lmao
Where the white peoples
dxvinti why would you respond to him
350 bonus SAT points does make it easier
Doesn't mean they aren't smart enough to get in
imagine not getting accepted rip
Mr. Thicc Awkward silence and a pat on the back
💀💀
This is spectacular. I sat here and watched this and had tears of joy!
You do know it was all a scam, right?
i couldnt see the last quote cuz of the fucking video overlap
“Most African American girls end up pregnant or not doing anything with their life. I know my mom wanted a different opportunity for me. TM Landry was the way out.”
honestly I remember looking back at this when it was on Facebook a couple times with my mom and I was so inspired by them to get better I'm now in the 9th grade and well only a year after it was first shown it turns out that the school actually taught them nothing and they just made them fake this for millions of views for people to like them and think they were actually a great school but ye that's just if you didn't know about it.
the video's actually weren't fake, they were actual acceptances. They did however fake almost every aspect of their application, transcripts, activites, etc
Aww it’s so nice that they r all supportive
Congrats kiddos, good luck and Godspeed 😀👍👏👏👏🙌✍👍

This would be amazing if getting into your dream school meant you can actually pay for it :/
so true...
Most ive leagues and Stanford give full ride for students who family income is less than $65,000.
Or if it was actually real.
Pleasure to watch
Gaadiid Kompanie too bad it’s a fraud
So cool to watch! These videos are amazing!
Cheating is amazing?
congratulations on all the hard work ,and may you continue to succeed and be happy in your future!
“oh wait wait wait...back up” *screams*
Scammed. Even juked the Washington Post lmaooooo. What a fraud.
I could watch this all day.
From Princeton and Yale, to Luisa Fernandez Vocational School taking their GED lmao! And reading the comments is hilarious too
Lack of representation and social setting can really do something to your mindset, because she said “Most African American girls just end up getting pregnant or not doing anything with their life.” She doesn’t know most African American girls tho, it’s because the environment she was placed in, so sad
No they aren't. Black women are in regards to black men but that means black woman have to have more degreees per person. So no they don't
n wo well I mean the single motherhood rate for black woman is 70% so it’s great for young woman to stand up and say no to that
SmoothSwingTV oh please, show me your statistics then talk
Fraud School
Even worse she didn’t even get accepted legit it was a scam
Anyone peep the guy in the yellow shirt dragging them around when they’re celebrating 😂😂😂
sal farhan 😂😂😂😂😂 I noticed that too
sal farhan that's the head of the school
Might want to update the title and description
Love this video. Just wish my school could be this hyped for each other
This is beautiful 😭
Mosidi Tenyane - this is fake
This is amazing
Amazingly fake!
Samantha Ramirez - amazing scam
Amazing lie
This is so nice! I wish kids at my school were this supportive of each other
No, you don’t.
This is a blessing this is just beautiful
I’d be the one who doesn’t get accepted to any 😂
This how i was when i got accepted to College. Instead it was just me and my mom celebrating. This video is awesome. Good luck in college guys! 👏🏽🙌🏽
Jay Casado what college
At least your transcript and your past is real. The school is fraud and the news is fake
@@camelicasckhawn6591 true, this guy knows for sure he deserved to get in!
Jay NYCE - so you admit to cheating also?
Jeff Lam - we don't know that.
this is the love and support we need in 2018
Well ,they said if something is too good to be true then it is. . . Poor children
I love seeing people so excited about their colleges and future life!!
If only it was real "smh"
aged like milk
This is touching
This made me cry. This is amazing
Now cry, because it was all a fraud, these kids got scammed.
how did the 16 year old get in to harvard early
that's what I was thinking
john damiano skipping grades or going to preparatory school.
Brenna Paulson also there is early acceptance
thatssojay yes, but in most cases for that to happen they are in the categories above I suppose.
I skipped a grade in high school. its possible. he probably skipped some grades.
But congratulations to everyone 🙏🙏
2:04 that quote is outrageous
MADE ME EMOTIONAL...CONGRATS TO ALL
I'm so proud of them. Can't remember what I did when I got accepted into my first choice uni and that was literally just last year...
Im from future, its all fake. Its on NY times and also Ellen, none of them accepted
me watching this wishing i could have the same reaction when i check my georgia tech email on january 9th
it was fake.
@@justicem4495 oh ok. Well my reaction will be legit
@@Armand__ alright good luck!
@@justicem4495 thanks, I'll need it
i love the amount of happiness i see in this vid, it just ends up making me so happy n excited for them 😭
Too bad it was all a scam,
Now feel bad.
This was amazing. Very cool
Guys , why is everyone disgusted at this video ? What happened ?
So they lied in their resumes about sat scores and school academics , I’m that school theirs no teachers and they have to teach themselves , they treat their kids badly , it’s hell, and they just want a good look for the public when behind closed doors they’re manipulating these kids
Just recently saw the news from The Washington Post on how they are scamming the kids and acting up a nicer attitude toward the public.
What is this school doing that other schools aren't? 100% graduation rate AND 100% of students are exccepted into the top colleges and universities in the country? I WANT TO ATTEND A SCHOOL LIKE THAT
Lol no you don't
Cheating. Abuse.
They faked grades
I love this so much I’m crying for them I applied for my top choice last year and got accepted full ride. Keep it up fellow scholars
The amount of support that these kids have for each other is stunning
Black excellence
alana smith shut up
fuck u
Nah just excellence period
*Excellence
Yeah black excellence👧🏿👦🏿👸🏿🤴🏿
pretty easy to have a 100% graduation rate with only 16 students lmao
Well, they all cheated. It was all a scam.
This is amazing!
Amazing scam.
@@xmuta yea at the time, I didn’t know, but it turn out to be something shameful :(
@@Dancingleaf243 - indeed.
It’s super emotional 😭
This is disgusting this school scams
This is too pure man. 😂
This is too fake lmaooo
This made me so happy
1:29 high five...or not😂😂 His face Was si funny
It was all a lie. Poor kids
Don’t poor kids me. They knew what they were doing.
John Petrus they’re kids, it’s the parents and adults at the school in control. Not the kids
@@rynolemons8662 The "kids" are all 18 years old at least and as such are adults. They are responsible for themselves and if they choose to take part in a fraud, then they are guilty as well. But because they are black, yet again, they will come up with some kind of excuse. "We wuz scared, we wuz beaten, we wuz threatened, we wuz just doing what we wuz told (like Nazis)"
John Petrus Some of them really didn’t know. All they know is that they are getting good grades, and some of them have been fool to believe hard word pay off.
Coming here after the new york times piece...
i love how their all so proud of each other!
Yeah, for cheating.
Im So happy for them
Kinda funny because the LA school system is terrible but good for them! Shows that even the hardest workers will succeed no matter what.
Itz Tiger we have a different system from regular schools and according to the state we aren’t even a real school
This is all fake though. The high-school was exposed for being not legit
That aged well
congratulations to all students keep up the studying n become a great leader for your community's
I understand that the school boosted test scores and grades given out, and even added classes that were not taken but... test scores and grades are not the only part of the application. These students had to also write killer essays to get in. The school didn’t write those essays, the students did! Not only that, you also had to mention extracurricular and awards. You can’t make those up either. So, while the test scores and grades may have been inflated, those students were still very accomplished as they have clearly done well in the other parts of the application. You can’t just have good inflated grades but 3rd grade writing for your college essays and get in; doesn’t work like that.
It’s call affirmative action
Bravo bravo bravo🤜🤛👏👏👏👏👏👏!!!! Excellent work every body an best of luck to you all on y'all journeys.
This had me in tears. What a special way to celebrate.. Making memories.
something you guys need to recognize is black people don't have to be on an athletic scholarship to get into iv schools , or the fact that you think that their race got them in, those situations are possible but most black kids get into college on an average scholarship. the fact that people are seriously in denial that these kids worked hard to get to where they are, is undeniably disrespectful and rude
go read the New York Times article that just came out
Zakia .x - they had to cheat and lie. Their scan have been exposed by NYT.
thats great and all but imagine how much student debt they are going to be in
Flying FajitaMan they could be rich. Having money is not only for white people you know...
Dee wow good job bringing race into this.... smh. I would have said the same thing if all of those kids were white. People like you are what's wrong with society
Imani Wow that's such a good system, they should definitely imply that to more colleges
I mean the fact that they are in an independent school, that already proves that they are pretty rich
Flying FajitaMan Ivy League gives full rides to anyone who’s family makes less than 60k. Also stop being a downer these kids will be fine
damn that explains why everyone in the room is always ready to support with gear and cheers 😍that is some incredible school spirit right there
Should take this video down or at least update the title.
Absolutely fantastic! ☺ May Jehovah bless you all, and remember use your gift of a higher education to help not only yourself but other's as well! Again Congratulations! ✌
Allahu Akbar.
oh god, a Jehovah witness
oh Jehovah, a God worshipper.
That's a smart school. Do they just not post the rejection videos?
Maya Holt they pretty much applied to more then 1 college
see any white kids in the videos??
I mean why would they that is embarrassing and to keep things positive no one needs anymore people saying anything about a certain group of people just keep it positive and for people of color this is empowering i think just to see so many of these young people of color getting into college
It says a 100% acceptance rate good enough to over power the rejections I guess
nop
I can't stop smiling. Happy for all of you!
aww this makes me so happy
I've never seen so many people excited about putting themselves $100k in debt
So people shouldn't try to get themselves into college?
LOL
