Finally, tonight's Heart of America, with a group of siblings
in a class of their own.
Here's CBS's Meg Oliver. Well,
we definitely miss out on prom right Graduation.
The Pompos are making up for lost time with the
quintessential graduation.
That's huge. I mean, like,
it's the first in our family.
Born in New Jersey on July 4th,
2002, quintuplets Victoria, Vico, Ashley,
Michael and Marcus have done it all from sharing birthdays
to bedrooms.
We know everything about each other,
but they weren't sure they'd share a college education.
Some of us even thought of maybe not going to
college or just community refinance the house,
ask for loans. We were in that process when the
big surprise happened.
Montclair State University pulled through with the big surprise,
offering five full academic scholarships.
So happy? Our mom was crying instantly as soon as
she found out.
Is this a dream come true for you?
Absolutely.
On Monday, four years after missing their high school graduation
during the pandemic.
The Polos made-up for it five times over.
Hopefully Med school down the line.
I might eventually go to law school and hopefully by
summer time.
I have a teaching job.
I want my own business.
I think I'm going to be continuing work,
my corporate banking job. Meg Oliver,
