Elon Musk is a renowned entrepreneur, investor and engineer. He is the founder of a number of companies, most notably SpaceX, Tesla, Inc. and Neuralink. What is not so widely known is that Elon Musk graduated high school in 1989.<\/p>\n

Musk was born on June 28, 1971, in Pretoria, South Africa, and moved with his family to Canada at the age of 17, in 1989. After attending private school in Pretoria, Musk attended public school in Toronto, Canada, where he quickly made a name for himself. Musk graduated from the prestigious private school St. Joseph’s High School in 1989. Musk graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1997 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics, and went on to found multiple companies.<\/p>\n

Musk’s academic career has been nothing short of impressive. Gary Rubens, a Princeton University applied physics professor and director of the Center for Entrepreneurial Studies, has said: “Musk is quite an academic star; not only did he excel in school, but he was also a very deep thinker. He was often seen going off on his own to explore ideas and concepts, something many of his peers didn’t do. This level of independent thinking and exploration led him to some revolutionary ideas and accomplishments.”<\/p>\n

Musk has been a lifelong learner and mentor, and has continually sought out knowledge in order to improve himself. He is passionate about pushing boundaries and has expressed his belief that “great achievements can come from small beginnings, even if it means taking an unorthodox approach.”<\/p>\n
