Kelsey Asbille (you may know her as Kelsey Chow) is still in college.
Some might consider the actress, who you remember from One Tree Hill and Disney’s Pair of Kings, to be on the older end of college students.
What you don’t know is that she was juggling her education at Columbia University and working as an actress full-time — for years; and still is.
At 25, she’s only in her sophomore year at the university.
“There’s a running joke in my family that I will most likely graduate from college the same year as my sister�she is eight years younger than I am,” Kelsey wrote in an essay with Town & Country mag.
She goes on to explain how she juggled it all, especially with her recent movie, Wind River.
“I took time away from my sophomore year to film the new movie Wind River, which is out August 4th,” Kelsey writes. “And instead of celebrating when the shoot wrapped, I rushed back to New York for a summer semester.”
She adds, “Being a college student and a working actress isn’t the simplest thing I’ve ever done, but I’ve managed to find a way to make both work for me�whether or not my sister gets her cap and gown first.”
FYI: Kelsey, wearing a JW Anderson black dress and Eva Fehren earrings, is pictured at the premiere of Wind River in Los Angeles on Wednesday night (July 26).
