After not being asked to prom, Priscilla, a high school senior,  decided to take her acceptance letter as a date.

According to the Mic, Priscilla got the idea to take her acceptance letter from her sister:

“She said, ‘The best one [date] is all your college admissions.”

So she took her sister’s advice:

“I took a date that was pretty low maintenance, so I didn’t have to pay for his dinner.”

Her friends were also really supportive:

They all thought it was so funny and cute. I didn’t get any negative feedback like I thought I would and they all were very proud and supportive.

Samey will be majoring in political science with a pre-law track at Harvard and plans to get both her juris doctorate and a degree in business administration, so she can go into business law.
