If you have ever applied for college or helped a family member, you know it's stressful to send in even one application.

A teen in New Orleans sent out dozens of applications and got accepted into more than 80 different colleges and universities.

Hard work is paying off for Darrin Francois, a high school senior.

Aside from being accepted to 83 different colleges, Francois has been offered close to $3 million in scholarship money.
