Jack Rico, a 15-year-old boy from the United States of America, has become the youngest person ever to complete his graduation from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). His bachelor’s degree in history is his first from UNLV, but he earned his fifth degree in just four years. Rico, of California, earned four associate degrees at the age of 13. Now, he completed his bachelor’s degree in history from UNLV.
Rico began his graduation journey at UNLV in August 2020. After graduation, he wants to enroll himself in more classes to explore different areas of study. As of now, he has not decided what to focus on for his master.
In an interview with UNLV, Rico said that he loved all the classes he attended. According to Rico, most of his classes were through the history or film departments and he learned something different in each class.
He was homeschooled by Jack’s mother, Ru Andrade. However, after teaching her for four years, she struggled to find new things for her to learn as he taught her everything she could. His mother thinks that he was smarter than him since childhood.
Ru Andrade shared a video of Rico getting his degree on Instagram.
