Questbridge College Prep Scholars 2017 Applicant Thread

Congratulations to all that got in! And for those who didn’t, make sure to apply for the collge match! Don’t let this bring you down!

Also, when will we get to know which colleges we got a visit for?

I got in and im a fein fellow! going to the pomona conference.

I got in!! I got the Emory conference but I won’t be going. Did anyone get a travel grant?

Congrats everyone!
@MaybeHarvard2022 No travel grant for me :c

@Justabean247 I don’t know when we’ll know exactly, but as quoted by Questbridge themselves, “We have nominated you to receive all-expense-paid campus visits from our college partners. The college visits are offered directly from our college partners, and they are ultimately the ones who make the decision to grant a student a college visit. If you are selected for a visit, that college will notify you in the summer or fall.”

We’ll basically know very late.

@MaybeHarvard2022 @lensonoda I didn’t get a travel grant either. Oh well, road trips are more fun anyways. :stuck_out_tongue:

@sugarysnow thanks! But that’s awful to know that late when your looking at early admittance.

Did anybody’s acceptance come with college visits other than their designated conference?

@wypiposuck___ I got the paragraph that @sugarysnow just mentioned.

@wypiposuck___ I got “recommended” for free travel for college visits to questbridge partners. But I wasn’t given a specific date or college.

Does anyone know when the summer programs are usually announced other than the typical late May response.

@wypiposuck___ Yeah I got accepted to Emory

@Justabean247 Maybe try stalking old forums to find out? ┐(´ー`)┌
Sorry, I have no idea on anything at this point.

I’m still so bummed out that no one here that’s been talking so far is going to the Yale Conference.
༼ ༎ຶ ෴ ༎ຶ༽
I wanted to meet some of you guys wahyYyyywhhyyYY!!1!

@sugarysnow
Aaa I wanted to meet you guys too. + tbh, Yale’s one of the top places on my list, so please have fun for me! C:

I got in. But I have to go to the Virtual Conference. Pretty wack but I get it, seeing as I live in the middle of nowhere. I was hoping I would get to go to the Yale conference or something, since it’s the closest venue.
I also got the college visit nomination, but I mean, I think it would be much better if we were told where and when-- early. Some of us can’t just take off. I like to plan out things.
But either way, I’m SO hype right now. I was def not expecting this development. I guess my writing skills paid off cuz my scores were not cuttin’ it.
But I really want a summer program nomination, that’s why I applied. But it’s so competitive…

Stats anyone?

Wait decisions are out? omg I’m not ready

@solarsystem
Believe in yourself!!!

@solarsystem Good luck!!!
@AlmightySadist Gosh, congrats is such a fun word to say. I’m glad they still have the virtual conference so you can still get all the info you need!

  • Hmm, how should we post stats?
