Khaya Njumbe graduated from Indiana University Northwest with a bachelorās degree in general studies on Wednesday, according to IU Northwest News & Events.
This wouldnāt normally make news, except for one reason: Njumbe is only 15 years old.

Oftentimes, the word āgeniusā is overused. We use it when we see a cerebral athlete, a gifted musician or a talented writer. But in Njumbeās case, it seems appropriate.
The teen already has three associate degrees in biology, liberal arts and general studies. Did I mention that in the process of getting his bachelorās degree, he will also be receiving his high school diploma from 21st Century Charter High School in Gary, Ind.?
Njumbe is juggling five things and excelling at every single one of them.
But despite all the compliments, Njumbe isnāt surprised at all, telling IU Northwest News & Events, āI guess a lot of people would think that Iām surprised, didnāt think I was going to be able to do this. Itās pretty normal for me now because as far back as I can remember, thatās all Iāve known.ā
More from IU Northwest News & Events:
He started studying at IU Northwest when he was 12 years old, balancing online and in-person classes while maintaining his passions outside of school. It wasnāt always easy being the youngest one on campus ā heās been accused of having a fake school ID when playing basketball in the Savannah Gymnasium and mistook for a professorās grandson while taking notes in a class.
Now that he has earned his bachelorās, Njumbe has plans to further his education by pursuing a masterās degree before going to medical school, in which he canāt enroll until heās 18 due to labor laws.
