QuestBridge National College Match 2015-16

Pshhhh. I have my senior pictures tomorrow and am tempted to just show up in a tshirt and jeans when my brain gives out because of all this stress.

Does anyone know when decisions come out? Is it at 12am?

I’m honestly relying on becoming a Questbridge finalist so much… which is why this is so nerve-racking. :((

@Mvptim pretty sure they come out in the afternoon, someone above said 3-5 PM

Quick question guys: If I don’t submit my application for a couple of schools, will questbridge revoke my whole thing or will I just not be considered for those schools?

no, you can always rerank and eliminate your colleges

@Mvptim Last year it was close to 5pm Eastern time before my daughter found out she was a finalist.

Good luck to everyone in here. I’m hoping for the best for all of us.

Anyone got an email from colleges regarding early action?
I received one from UChicago although I never started any application
Does this indicate Finalist status?

Everyone on this thread needs to chill out. Becoming a finalist is NOT hard. Anyone reasonably qualified (32+ ACT, 3.8+ GPA, decent ECs and recs) will probably make it.

Where do you find out if you made it? By e-mail or on the website?

@StrikerX For CPS, they emailed us a link to our application page, where there was an update of the decision.

@gearsstudio becoming a QuestBridge finalist is not easy. QuestBridge had almost 12,000 applications last year and selected roughly 4,000. The majority were not selected. The amount of work that students put into vying to be selected is immense. This programme has the ability to change a student’s life. For many this is their only opportunity at not only attending a prestigious university but attending one at all, to minimise and dismiss their anxiety and dreams is unkind at best.

@Saffysmum That’s the truest post/comment/statement I’ve witnessed all morning. Thanks for that.

@gearsstudio Dude that’s what I thought…until I checked out the 2014-2015 questbridge finalist decision thread. People with 34 ACT and good ECs still got rejected. I’m really scared right now. :frowning:

stress is unbearable!

When do we find out. its october 21stttttttttt

Has anyone gotten their results yet?
