The QuestBridge National College Match is designed for high school seniors who have shown outstanding academic ability despite facing economic challenges. QuestBridge does not have fixed criteria for GPA, standardized test scores, or income. When selecting finalists, we try to answer the following questions:
"Does this student have the motivation and ability to thrive at one of our partner colleges?"
"What obstacles has this student overcome, socioeconomic and otherwise?"
QuestBridge selects finalists for our partner colleges to review but does not choose College Match scholarship recipients. Partner colleges ultimately make the final selection of scholarship recipients from among the finalists.
The following factors are taken into account when considering an application:
