Most students selected as College Prep Scholars come from households earning less than $65,000 per year for a household of four with minimal assets. However, there are no absolute cut-offs. If a student comes from a household earning more than this amount but feels that they have faced long-term economic hardship and fit the QuestBridge criteria of high-achieving students from low-income backgrounds, we would encourage that student to apply. There is room in the application to explain the household's situation.
For more information, please see the Who Should Apply page and our profile of last year's College Prep Scholars.
