Summer Sinsley will attend Harvard University in Fall 2025
Columbiana High School Senior Summer Sinsley has been accepted to attend Harvard University in the Fall of 2025. She is among the 3%-student-acceptance-rate worldwide*. “I have had countless late nights of studying, activities, and applications to get me to this spot. Yet nothing can prepare you for the surge of excitement and disbelief that follows a ‘Congratulations!’ on the top of your Harvard decision letter. I would just like to thank everyone who has and will continue to make this dream possible for me,” Summer says of the experience.
Summer has received the Harvard Faculty Scholarship and will major in Astrophysics or Mathematics with the ultimate goal of working in applied research fields. “We are extremely proud of Summer. Her hard work, dedication, and thoughtfulness has led her to accomplish many goals and we are excited for her opportunity at Harvard. We know she will achieve great success and cannot wait to see what the future holds,” says her parents (Russ Sinsley and Candace Stith). Columbiana Superintendent Dr. Don Mook echoes their pride saying, “it is difficult to articulate the enormity of this accomplishment. Summer has been a beloved and esteemed part of the Clipper family and we know she will continue to represent her family and community well in the next chapter of her academic career,” he finished.
