The Match Scholarship
Attend a top college for free
The Match Scholarship is a full four-year scholarship to one of QuestBridge's college partners, worth over $325,000. To receive a Match Scholarship that covers tuition, housing and food, and other expenses, you must rank colleges. By ranking colleges, you could be “matched”— admitted early with a guaranteed full four-year Match Scholarship — to the college that appears highest on your list that is also able to match with you.
All Match Scholarship packages:
- Have NO parental contribution
- Have NO student loans
- May contain a student contribution in the form of federal work-study, summer work, and/or student savings
