A 17-year-old Georgia student has received over 60 college acceptances and $1 million in scholarships, Good Morning America reports.

Mantavius "Lebron" Presley, a student at Douglas County High School in Georgia, said he started applying for colleges on the first day of his senior year in the hopes of pursuing medicine and later becoming an anesthesiologist.

Presley juggled dual enrollment courses and work-based learning while completing as many applications as possible. He also held leadership roles in the National Honor Society and Future Business Leaders of America as he worked at a local pizza restaurant.

Presley said he received his first college acceptance from the University of Alabama, one of his top school choices, in October. The offers continued to pour in. As of last week, Presley received 61 acceptances and was awarded over $1.1 million in scholarships.

The teenager said he was determined to attend college from a young age.

"When I was a little boy, I always said that I would go to the university, because people in my family will always talk about how much they loved their college life and how much [it] really impacted them," he said. "So, I always thought when I was a little boy, that I would just go off and do something amazing."

Presley also credited his mother as his "biggest cheerleader."

"She is my biggest cheerleader," Presley said. "Always on the sidelines, always letting me know that she's here for me, if I have any questions, if I need any advice, if I ever just need a shoulder to lean on, somebody to cry on. If she doesn't know the answer, she's gonna get with somebody and find out the answer. She's just always willing to help me and be by my side and give me inspiration and guidance when I need it the most."
