At only 13 years, ‘Dr Nina’ has been accepted to Mary Baldwin University, Virginia with $20,000 in merit scholarships.

Despite being born with developmental delays and being nonverbal as a child, Nina didn’t let that stop her.

Blackculturenews.com reports that with speech, physical and occupational therapy, she always strives to fulfill her potential and dream of becoming a doctor.

Nina’s dream has always been to become a doctor and she has never looked back in spite of the challenges.

The brilliant teen prodigy has received more medals in recognition of her accomplishments.

The young genius was blessed with $20,000 in merit scholarships, leaving a $13,800 gap which if funded, would see her inch closer to her dream of becoming a surgeon.

Since being accepted just a few weeks ago, Nina has been searching for and applying to every scholarship whose deadline has not already passed.

Unfortunately, almost all scholarships have a requirement of a high school transcript, Senior in HS or minimum age of 18.

Nina has not given up! She is still working hard to raise money to fund her education.
