Dear Quasar Light,
I am delighted to inform you that the Committee on Admissions and Financial Aid has voted to offer you a place in the Canterlot Equestrian Math and Science Honor Society pending a successful graduation from Ponyville or Canterlot High School. Please accept my personal congratulations for your outstanding achievements.
This year nearly twenty-three thousand students applied for admission to the entering class. Faced with many talented and highly qualified candidates than it had room to admit, the Admission Committee took great care to choose individuals with exceptional character as well as unusual academic and extracurricular strengths. The Committee is convinced that you will make an important contribution during your college years and beyond.
As always, it is imperative that you continue your academic success through high school while maintaining extracurricular activities outside of the classroom that will strengthen your current portfolio. It is not every day that we accept an application from a student as young as you but your recent score of a 96% in the Mathematics challenge as well as a 95% in the Science and Engineering challenge has convinced us to make an exception. As you progress in your study and research we will continue to keep tabs and expect annual updates.
We look forward to hearing your reply,
Midnight Shadows

As the young colt read aloud his acceptance letter, a beam of pride crosses over his face. Trotting in place, he holds it up for his mother, Madame Torch Light who floats it up to her eye level and inspects it with her thin reading glasses. After a long and silent minute, she gives a clear of her throat, floating it back down to him.
"I told you that biology was your weak point. You should have studied harder. You would have got at least a 97 percent in the science challenge."
There is another pause before she speaks again.
"I expect you to make this up in the next few weeks. I will retest you once I feel that you have proven to me that you are ready."
As she turns and heads back down the hallway to her study, the sound of hoof steps clop along the cold tile. Quasar stands and watches her leave with a chewing of his bottom lip before his ears wilt backwards and his shoulders slowly slump.
Feeling a hoof gently place upon his shoulder from behind, he looks over to see Mister [BUY SOME CELERY] Stalks, their butler. After a reassuring smile, he speaks in his usual soft tone.
"Do not worry yourself young Master Light. Your mother is proud of you. You know how she is."
Swallowing tightly in his throat as he tries to bottle his emotions within his chest, Quasar nods his head slowly and turns, heading back to his room as he leaves behind the letter on the coffee table.
