Angelina Jolie’s children have grown up before our very eyes and now her second oldest kid, Zahara, is preparing to go off to college at Spelman College. The historically Black college or university (HBCU) has a long list of prominent graduates who have gone on to make huge impacts in their field. Young Zahara will be in good hands when it comes to following the lead of the impressive alumni who came before her.
Another Of Angelina Jolie’s Kids College Bound!
Two of Angelina Jolie’s six children are now college students. We don’t feel old, you do! While her eldest child Maddox chose to go abroad at Seoul University to pursue his higher education, her eldest daughter Zahara decided she’d be staying a little closer to home.

She’ll be traveling to Atlanta, Georgia this fall to attend Spelman College. Her proud mom couldn’t have been more thrilled to share the news. The Eternals star took to her rarely used Instagram account and posted a photo of Zahara standing with some other incoming freshmen and got a little sentimental in the caption.
A New Beginning For Zahara
Jolie wrote, “Zahara with her Spelman sisters! Congratulations to all new students starting this year. A very special place and an honor to have a family member as a new Spelman girl.” As one of the newest in a long line of “Spelman girls,” Zahara will have some impressive shoes to fill, and no, we’re not talking about her famous parents.
