Paying for College Access Programs (Questbridge, Posse)
1

Hey guys, so I was informed about Questbridge by a friend but he was extremely vague when he explained the situation to me, I was wondering if you guys could help me out, thanks. I am mixed race, (Black and White) if that matters

-I live in a house of 3 (separated parents) and the income is $59,000. Do i qualify?
-Around how many kids apply each year, and how many get in?
-If you are named a finalist, do you get any benefits at all? Or does that only happen when you get the actual scholarship
-I have a 1360 SAT, 31 ACT and a 3.5 GPA, amazing EC’s and honors and good recs. What are my chances at getting a scholarship?
-Due to these stats, what 12 schools should I put on my list to maximize my chances at a good scholarship?
-When is the app deadline, and when do they inform you if you’re a finalist. Do they inform before November 1st, the cut-off date for ED for most uni’s?

Thanks so much! I’m looking forward to your responses.

Below is a link to the application requirements. Explore the website, as it’s very good at answering the basic questions such as timeline, requirements, the process, etc.

For the college match, you can list UP TO 12 schools but as little as one. This is important, as if you are matched with a school on your list, you are REQUIRED to attend that school. (Only 4 schools are nonbinding.)

The deadline for the application is September 27. There’s a dates & deadlines section of the website.

You can also find Questcasts online that are really helpful for navigating the process.
