Twins will continue tandem tuition at Harvard

A pair of matching acceptance letters from Harvard University has again thrust identical-twin sisters into the spotlight, four years after they first caught public attention with admittance to prestigious Fudan University.

Sun Yumeng and Sun Yutong, both English majors at Fudan in Shanghai, received acceptance letters from Harvard this month for graduate studies in education. They will head for Cambridge, Massachusetts, in the summer.

The sisters, born in 1994 in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, share an astonishingly parallel development path.
