Yara Shahidi continues to embody BLACK GIRL MAGIC! Receiving just about the greatest college co sign anyone could get, from our favorite first lady.

The Black-ish star recently told W Magazine that former First Lady Michelle Obama wrote her a college recommendation letter.

“She is very amazing and such a supporter, which is something very surreal to say,” Shahidi told the publication. She’s supposedly applying to Obama’s alma mater Harvard, among other top-line schools.

Malia Obama relayed that she’s going to be going to Harvard and plans on taking a gap year before going to school. Shahidi reportedly plans to do the same and will doing a double major in African-American Studies and Sociology.
