DETROIT (WXYZ) Michael Love is a senior at Cornerstone Health and Technology in Detroit. He's not sure where he's headed next fall yet, but hes got a binder full of offers. His success though, comes after a some doubt, struggle, and a lot of hard work.
I got told a lot when I was younger I couldnt do this, I couldnt do that," Love said. "So I just wanted to show people Im better than what they think I am.
He applied to more than 50 schools for next year. Not only do most want him many are offering to foot the bill.
Its over $300,000 in scholarship money I have as of right now, Love said.
