- Intel SEFMD Science Fair Grand Award winner and has qualified for the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair.
- Captain of the Forensics and Quiz Bowl Team.
- Co-editor of the high school newspaper.

- Two-time DECA State Champion.
- Qualified for the 2015 National Quiz Bowl and the 2016 National History Bowl.
- 2014, finished 11th in the Scripps National Spelling Bee.
- Started a nonprofit, Helping Hands Going Global, that provides necessities for children in need around the world.
- She coaches mentally and physically challenged students for the Special Olympics.
- Seshadri has been a varsity swimmer and member of the Women's State Championship team since 2014. In 2013, she won a gold and silver medal in the Junior Olympics in the freestyle and backstroke competitions.

All of that PLUS colleges know ahead of time she has no need for aid = 100% lock for Stanford or Harvard.[/quote]
