"I realized that QuestBridge was made for students like me. Students who are bright but reluctant to apply to those big universities for fear that their families can't afford it. Knowing that [matching] would cover the cost of my education was a worry lifted off my chest, it liberated me in a sense." -Somaiya A., Brooklyn, NY, @tuftsadmissions '25
"Knowing that I can potentially graduate from undergraduate school debt-free, especially when I want to pursue a higher degree, was a great relief. I never thought it would be possible to go to a college that is well-accredited or far from home." -Jeanarry R., Vestavia Hills, AL, @macadmission '24
"I really pushed through with a lot of positive self-talk and self-trust, and I'm more than glad I did [...] Now that I received the Match Scholarship, it's an opportunity for me to prioritize myself and my future career." -Marianne D., Chandler, AZ @colbycollege '25 #MatchMonday

"The Match Scholarship has now given me the ability to focus on my future career and academics without having to worry about putting my family in a financial hole. It has also given me confidence in myself which I didn't have before, as oftentimes when looking at others around me I feel a bit of impostor syndrome, but now I know that I've done well given the circumstances that I've had to overcome." -Pablo C., Brewster, NY, @vassaradmissions '25

"The only way I would be able to go to college at all was through an academic scholarship, but prior to QuestBridge, I did not know a full, academic scholarship was a reality. It opened up opportunities to dream big." -Rachel P., Sicklerville, NJ, @haverfordedu '25 #MatchMonday

"This was our first ever newsletter. We wanted to incorporate fun and informational content. We included important dates like the FAFSA, but we also really wanted the chapter members to feel invested, so we asked them to submit pet pictures and their birthdays that we'll feature each month. We really wanted it to feel like a collaborative project, and we think we succeeded in that!" - Mason S., Hamilton QSN President
"QuestBridge helped me understand that those prestigious colleges are not available only for people coming from high-income families, but also students from low-income families, like myself." -Anastasija V., @Wellesley '24 #MatchMonday #DreamBig
