What are my chances of becoming a finalist for questbridge if my family makes around 110 k a year after tax? (I come from a single income family). My parents are immigrants, but they received degrees in another country, so I would be the first one in my family to attend a school in the US (i dont think this counts as first gen, but is it still a hook?)
Although family income is a factor, no one can give you an answer without knowing more about you. What are your grades/gpa? Standardized test scores? Family situation? Any extenuating circumstances? Essay topic/quality? All of those are important factors when QB looks at applicants.
I would say that your family income is fairly high compared to the average of finalists, but other factors will be taken into consideration, so I’d say go for it. If you think that QB is right for you, then apply!
Best of luck!
