@highschoolroller ah okay, thank you so much!
is this Questbridge scholar legit? I submitted an application without telling my parents and they are very mad thinking I have been scammed. I was looking to get away from home to spend a few weeks in college for free during summer and they think that sounds too good to be true. Anyway I guess I just have to spend my summer working and finishing my IB extended essay
This is a legitimate program for low-income, high achieving students. (If you want confirmation, search up Questbridge College Prep Scholars on Google.)
I agree with @alumon. Questbridge is completely legitimate. My counsellor actually presented it to me, and a lot of people on the CC community know about it. It is definitely not a scam. You should look at the site https://www.questbridge.org with your parents and reassure them, it is absolutely real! Good luck!
@Hanting1929, QuestBridge Prep Scholars and QuestBridge College Match are both 100% legitimate programs. See above comments too.
When do decisions come out?
My guess is that they’ll come out on April 20th. They’ve come out on the third Friday of April for a while now.
Will the results be emailed or will I have to log onto the portal to check it?
One of my emails says “[We] will receive an email in late April notifying [us] to check [our] application status” so that makes me think we’ll have to log into the portal? I could be wrong though
I’m pretty sure that’s it @celestialkairos , but we’ll have to see. They will send an email to notify us anyways @chinmato
Anyone else getting nervous???!!
No. Results are results.
@mc4college I’m not nervous lol. My essays were very rushed, so I wouldn’t be suprised if I was rejected.
Did any of you guys apply to the Yale Young Global Scholars program? And does anyone know when those results come out? Thanks!!!
I applied but I haven’t heard anything back yet nor do I know when they come out
even if you gys don’t get it, don’t be so down! I attended the event long time ago, and though it was very informative, you can find the exact same but more honest information in CC.
I just received notice that I was nominated as a finalist for the Pioneer Academics Research Program through the Quest for Excellence Award. If I do not get selected as a prep scholar, does this withdraw my nomination and potential scholarship? Also, does this mean I got selected as a prep scholar or are the awards completely separate? thanks everyone!
@cindy341 congratulations on being a finalist for the QFE award!
Applicants who achieve awards are sometimes notified earlier (than the official QB notification) when the particular summer program starts earlier. QB only gives awards to applicants who are CPS winners (meaning it won’t be revoked). It says you’re a finalist for the award, but there’s a high likelihood you are a CPS. Just my guess.
I haven´t been notified yet. Do all notifications come at the same time for that award?
Has anyone received anything for the quest for excellence arts award?
