Questbridge College Match

<p>Hi everyone, </p>

<p>I just got a letter two days ago to apply for Questbridge's College Match and I was wondering if anyone here had any experience with the program or any advice for me and also how many people would you expect Yale to admit from this program? It sounds like a wonderful opportunity but it did mention that the purpose was to provide people with low income with scholarships to colleges. While my family is most certainly not free from financial worries, my mom makes more than 60,000 a year (which is the average income for most applicants, i guess) Even though she makes more, we have to make up for the tremendous debt my father put us in and support our family in Nigeria who are sick/homeless. I was just wondering if the fact that my mom's income is higer than most who are applying would hinder my chances. </p>

<p>thanks in advance!</p>
