When it comes to Carson Huey-You, age really is nothing but a number.

While other kids his age are starting fifth grade, this 11-year-old is looking forward to his freshman year of college. According to reports, Carson is the youngest student to ever enroll at Texas Christian University!

“I’m taking calculus, physics, history and religion – those are my core classes,” explains the physics major. “It’s fun because, it’s basically just like high school, but in a big campus … with a lot more people.”

He adds, “I cant really think of anywhere else I’d rather be.”

Although he may be on a big campus, Carson’s mother Claretta still drives him to school and carries his book bag. She says her son “had intense focus as an infant” and began reading at age one.

“He’s definitely very talented and also he’s very serious about his work and he really enjoys it,” says one TCU professor of his youngest student. “And that’s the best a professor can hope for from his students, right?”

And just to add a cherry on top, this little scholar also speaks Mandarin and plays the piano!
