@lensonoda I relate to that! I’m checking my email so often that I seem crazy. What would my days look like when I wait for college decisions?
@QUESTBR1DGE - You should email them about why you received the ‘not completed’ email just to save yourself the worry. I have emailed them several times, both with general questions and questions on Quest for Excellence Awards, and hear back within hours. It may help them if you forward the email you received since that will have your Questbridge Applicant ID# on it.
Here are the email addresses:
General Questions: questions@questbridge.org
Quest for Excellence Awards Questions: qfe@questbridge.org
@lensonoda Junior year is so scary :o I feel like so much pressure is building up. The weirdest thing is that this year will essentially determine our futures and we’re judged as teenagers, the time when we’re the most vulnerable, emotional, and impulsive.
Just thought I’d join this thread in the days leading up to the decision. I had no idea you had to apply with separate essays to the summer programs and awards until the 21st and didn’t see they were due on the 9th so won’t be getting those. I spent ages on my essay so I feel good about that and my academic stuff. Do any of you all feel like you haven’t gone through enough financial struggle to be seriously considered? I’m on the high end of the suggested amount but with weird circumstances.
@Glorfindel1 I think I’m in the same boat as you. My income is ~51k for 4 people so I am nervous how that will factor in, but at the same time I’m an immigrant, POC and a first generation student so I think it somewhat balances itself out.
“Award notifications for the College Prep Scholars Program will be released in late April. You will receive an e-mail informing you that your application status can be viewed on your Application Management page.”
@theboyoverthere Really? :0 I thought it was coming out in late May. Oh well, the sooner, the better!
Hey all,
I just wanted to join in on the conversation. I’m scared, anxious, and excited. I don’t know, it’s stuff like this that really excite me. lol. I am also waiting for my March SAT score, which I know is probably horrible! QB is my hope. Can somebody email them and ask them if they have a specific date and time the results will come out? I already emailed them like twice, I don’t want to be annoying. Also, what did you guys write about in your essays?
@HERCULES_HERCULES I heard people say that last year they came out on April 22nd.
@Naperthrill I know I’ve been looking at old fourms and saw that, but the 22nd this year is a Saturday. They’re not even open on saturdays.
Has anyone received phone calls for summer programs? From threads of previous years, some people get called to go to these programs well before QB releases decisions for prep scholar.
@HappySquirrel I speak from my own speculations, but I don’t think there are people who have received phone calls or emails for summer programs. I feel like someone would have told us in this forum by now lol
So, any updates? Pretty anxious for the results :((
@sugarysnow Not that I know of ):
I emailed because I made like 2-5 errors on my application, and I also asked them about when the results will be released. They didn’t give me any real answers. “We do not have an exact date we can provide but will notify all applicants of their application status in late April via email”. I just want the results like yesterday. My mind just keeps gravitating towards the thought of Questbridge. I have times I picture my reaction getting accepted, then others I see myself getting rejected and watching others in my schools get accepted.
Did everyone receive the email to complete a survey?
Focus your attention on things that you can influence. Do your best each step of the way and help other accomplishm the same. Your future success is driven by you. Some programs do help in this regard however it’s your attitude and actions that defines you not the program. Stay passionate about learning and making a contribution throughout life challenges and you will always feel accomplished.
Thank you @Volunteerism for the brief uplift.
Just got the survey email
"Dear #####,
Thank you for applying to the College Prep Scholars Program! You will receive an email in late April notifying you to check the status of your application.
In the meantime, please take our quick survey about the application process to help us better serve students like you."
I also got the survey email, I thought decisions had come out haha
