Explain how QuestBridge works

Paying for College Access Programs (Questbridge, Posse)
1

<p>I got the information about QuestBridge in the mail recently, and it said the deadline is at the end of September. So if I apply through QuestBridge, am I using QB instead of ED?</p>

<p>The deadline between QB and ED/EA are so close, and I don't know how QB exactly works. Is QB same thing as applying early except you are getting financial aid?</p>

<p>Also, am I applying to be part of QB and if yes, how many people gets to part of this?</p>

<p>Read through that and this: [QuestBridge</a> National College Match Program](<a href=“http://www.questbridge.org/students/program.html]QuestBridge”>http://www.questbridge.org/students/program.html)
Quick answer to your question: It’s earlier than ED/EA. You find out beginning of Dec. You can apply to a total of 8 ED through QuestBridge as oppose to 1 regularly. You rank your choices, and the topmost choice that accepts you are “matched” with you. Meaning you must go to that matched college.</p>
