It’s clear that academic achievements are important to some A-listers – especially those who obtained their degrees after becoming famous – all while balancing a busy work schedule with classes, midterms and finals.
While this often leaves us mere mortals admiring their accomplishments from afar, it’s worth remembering that with hard work and perseverance, earning a degree or a graduate degree is more than possible.
