The Questbridge College Prep Scholarship

Help for Exceptional High School Juniors Facing Economic Challenges

The 2008 awards cycle is now closed to submissions.
Please check back in late Fall 2008.

Help your students access educational opportunity. The Questbridge College Prep Scholarship is designed to level the playing field of college admissions by equipping high-achieving, low-income students to successfully apply to leading schools. If you know high school juniors who have achieved exceptional academic results despite economic challenges, consider referring them to the College Prep Scholarship application.

Each award includes one or more of the following:

  • Full scholarships to selective college summer programs: QuestBridge will provide counseling to 10 students to support their applications to summer school programs at Harvard University, Stanford University, the University of Notre Dame, or Yale University. If accepted, students will receive a scholarship covering tuition, room and board.

  • College admissions counseling: QuestBridge will offer individualized assistance with college admissions and financial aid to 50 students.

  • College preparatory conferences: Approximately 800 applicants will be selected to attend one of four college preparatory conferences at top-ranked colleges nationwide in the summer of 2009. Conferences will feature workshops on selecting colleges, application strategies, and financial aid.

Applications are due March 31, 2008. Visit www.questbridge.org/cps/info.php for information.
