We review applications holistically, and students are evaluated based on every section of the application. No single factor is decisive. Transcripts, curriculum, standardized test scores (if taken), financial need and other socioeconomic factors, activities (including work, home, or family responsibilities), and writing responses are the most heavily weighted factors. Due to the volume of applications that we receive, QuestBridge cannot comment on individual application decisions.
For more information on our eligibility criteria, please see the Apply to the College Prep Scholars Program page and our profile of last year's College Prep Scholars.
