  • Is Applying Early Right for You?
    Is Applying Early Right for You? [email protected] | TC Williams King St A-115 | 703.824.6730 © 2018 The Scholarship Fund of Alexandria All rights reserved. Written consent required for reproduction or distribution. What factors should you take into consideration when deciding whether to apply regular decision or early? Students should only apply early if they are happy with their college essays and grades from AP/DE courses taken prior to senior year. It is very important not to rush an early application. However, if a student feels ready to go with their applications in the fall, there can be some benefits to considering Early Action/Early Decision. Early Action/Early Decision Students who have a 3.75+ GPA and are enrolled in AP/DE courses should consider applying early. Ivy Leagues and many highly selective colleges accept almost 50% of their freshman class through Early Action/Early Decision. Applications are typically due in October or November of senior year. Early Action (EA): Accepted students are not required to attend EA college. Early Decision (ED): Accepted students are required to attend ED college and withdraw other college applications. o Because ED is binding, it is important that students with financial need apply ONLY to colleges that guarantee to meet 100% of the student’s financial need (please see the list of colleges that guarantee to meet 100% of financial need on p. 14). o Only families that can afford to pay the full cost of college out of pocket should apply ED to colleges that are not included on this list.

  • Questbridge: a Search for Scale
    For the exclusive use of A. Harlam CASE: SI-83 DATE: 01/19/11 QUESTBRIDGE: A SEARCH FOR SCALE The benefit of applying to QuestBridge is obvious. QuestBridge gives low-income students like me a fair shot. It evens the playing field and removes the pressure of debt and financial woes from families who are just trying to make ends meet. QuestBridge is like an IV, providing the essential resources for students over a course of four years. – QuestBridge student, class of 2009 “The future of our democracy and economy rests upon ways of finding opportunity and mobility that are not happening in our unequal world. QuestBridge is at the crossroads of doing just that.” – Anthony Marx, president of Amherst College “QuestBridge is one of the most innovative programs for upward mobility that can be scaled.” – Bill Bradley, former U.S. senator and presidential candidate, QuestBridge board member It was January, 2010, the start of the new decade, and QuestBridge founder and president Michael McCullough considered his organization’s future. What had begun in 1994 as an intensive summer program for 15 high school kids was now the national leader in making college a reality for bright, motivated low-income students. In 2009 alone, QuestBridge had placed 1,500 high school seniors – with full, four-year scholarships – at 30 top colleges. In return, the organization received recruiting fees from the schools of $1.8 million; enough to cover more than 80 percent of its operating expenses and to put the organization on a path to self-sufficiency. Yet despite this success, QuestBridge’s leaders were compelled to do more.
