QuestBridge

“I used to be convinced that I would not be smart enough to get a scholarship to pay for my college. [QuestBridge] has given me confidence and helped me trust myself. The National College Match scholarship has impacted my future by allowing me to explore areas and perspectives that I would have never experienced otherwise. I would also not have considered moving to the East Coast had it not been for QuestBridge.” - Emilia, Pasadena, CA, Wellesley College ‘29 #DreamBig #CollegeBound #QuestBridge #College #TopCollege #Awards #Scholarships #TopUniversities #HighAchieving #LowIncome

“I never once thought or believed that I would receive a full ride to an out-of-state college. This scholarship practically paved a new path for me because my parents and I would never be able to afford to sustain my life in a state so different and far from my home.” Diego, Brownsville, TX, Colgate University '29 #MatchMonday #DreamBig #CollegeBound #QuestBridge #College #TopCollege #Awards #Scholarships #TopUniversities #HighAchieving #LowIncome

“I was always planning on going to college, but I really didn’t have a solid sense of direction until I was introduced to QuestBridge. … QuestBridge’s resources and webinars helped me come up with more focused, attainable goals to aim for and work towards. I never thought I would be able to not only get into a university as prestigious and selective as Johns Hopkins, but receive a full, 4-year ride as well. One of the many valuable life lessons the QB process taught me is the importance of having self-confidence. You never know what you are capable of until you achieve it, so set your sights high, work your hardest, and take good care of yourself while you’re at it!” - Jenna, King Of Prussia, PA, Johns Hopkins University ‘29 #MatchMonday #DreamBig #CollegeBound #QuestBridge #College #TopCollege #Awards #Scholarships #TopUniversities #HighAchieving #LowIncome

“The biggest piece of advice that I could give would be to stay true to yourself and just do what you enjoy. It is easier and more meaningful to write reflections about things that you genuinely care about in comparison to something you only do for recognition or because you are forced to do it. … When senior year came around, I was stressed and worried about not having done enough cool, impactful things to really stand out in applications. I feel like if I didn’t compare myself to others and just focused on myself, I would have enjoyed the application process a lot more and would have been a lot less stressed about applying to schools.” - Nessa, District Heights, MD, Oberlin College '29 #MatchMonday #DreamBig #CollegeBound #QuestBridge #College #TopCollege #Awards #Scholarships #TopUniversities #HighAchieving #LowIncome

“When I think of QuestBridge, words that come to mind are ‘hope’ and ‘opportunity’. To me, QuestBridge means that hard work, perseverance, and determination can triumph and that higher education is possible even coming from a disadvantaged background. Receiving the Match Scholarship has been a blessing that will allow me to be the first in my family to receive a higher education, give back to my community, and ultimately make a difference in the world.”- Jonathan, Barrington, IL, Northwestern University ‘29 #MatchMonday #DreamBig #CollegeBound #QuestBridge #College #TopCollege #Awards #Scholarships #TopUniversities #HighAchieving #LowIncome

"QuestBridge is a life-changing opportunity, offering the chance to meet new people and expand possibilities at the milestone of college. Receiving the Match Scholarship has transformed my reality, allowing me to study at Colorado College. There, I’ll have the resources to pursue and explore my passion for film and media, while also exploring my curiosity about environmental studies—all at the same time. Being part of QuestBridge has connected me to a new community, one that I am now a part of as I arrive on campus." - Allison, East Newark, NJ, Colorado College '29 #MatchMonday #DreamBig #CollegeBound #QuestBridge #College #TopCollege #Awards #Scholarships #TopUniversities #HighAchieving #LowIncome

"QuestBridge completely changed my perspective about the college options that were available to me. I had honestly never heard of a lot of their college partners — I hadn’t even heard of the college I matched to before QuestBridge! But throughout this whole process: being a College Prep Scholar, a National College Match Finalist, and finally a [Match] Scholarship Recipient, I was exposed to so many amazing colleges and universities that I was capable of being accepted into." Zenna, Williamsport, PA, Denison University '29 #MatchMonday #DreamBig #CollegeBound #QuestBridge #College #TopCollege #Awards #Scholarships #TopUniversities #HighAchieving #LowIncome
