Oh my gosh, it's that time of the year when high school seniors across the nation are getting letters from colleges letting them know if they have been accepted or not. Crazy exciting and crazy stressful. Not just for the students, but for their parents too.
I just spent a good chunk of time watching YouTube videos of college acceptance reactions and I have to tell you I was thrilled for every single student. Their joy is palpable and contagious. I love it and I have to share the best college acceptance reactions I came across with you.

Here are the five best college acceptance reactions of 2014:
1.Get ready to meet Noah Van Vooren from Little Chute, Wisconsin. Van Vooren has Downs syndrome and his overwhelming joy at getting into Edgewood College in the state's capital is not to be missed. This video has become an internet favorite and for good reason.
2. Upchuck alert. Some question the authenticity of this video and say that it reaks of Jimmy Kimmel, but I'm not so sure. Be warned the young lady in this video gets so excited she pukes, it's gross, but hilarious at the same time.
3. I love this one because it is a mother's reaction to her son revealing that he got into college and it is all kinds of sweet and loving on both their parts.
4. This makes my Latina heart swell with pride. Brian Landeros wrote, "As a first generation student, getting into college alone is a huge accomplishment. This acceptance means so much." And his proud mama standing by his side, not at all surprised that her son acheived his dream.
5. The ultimate squeal. Sometimes when a bunch of girls get together nothing expresses joy quite like an ear-piercing squeal.
Congratulations to all the soon to be college freshmen! Keep up the good work.
