[@avatellez6036]

+Antonia Castro Torres How did it go?

[@avatellez6036]

Tori Balla hi! I got into several schools the highest rank was Notre Dame but I decided to go to USC! I was rejected from stanford

[@toriballa2063]

Antonia Castro Torres Wow that’s literally so amazing USC is so awesome!!

[@tiffanyofficial0390]

@@avatellez6036 congrats on USC! that's also my dream school and i was wondering if you had any tips on essays for questbridge?

[@johnliu977]

Hoping I get into Stanford through Questbridge

[@zzhoodie]

Did you??

[@ariannasantiago8661]

Wait, so you can rank after you find out if you are a finalist? Thanks for making this! It's v v v helpful to someone who ran out of time before she could finished her CPS app :/

[@gianaperez2009]

You cant add new colleges, but you rearrange the previous order you submitted or remove a college.

[@ritaabdul7823]

how long did it take you to write your questbridge essays? And can you add EC's/jobs that you are planning to do after september?

[@cree38]

It took me about a week to finish the essays. And you can TOTALLY add stuff you’ll be doing later on in your senior year or before college in general

[@CherryCloverBlossom]

Thank you Beautiful!!!

[@hamnah4glte979]

Hello, my friend just told me about this program however I never knew about the April Scholars program and I didn’t apply. Would that make it harder for me to make it as a Finalist in the National College Match program since I didnt apply as a Scholar?

[@cree38]

Not being a College Prep Scholar shouldn’t make it harder to become a finalist for the National College Match. They won’t hold that against you. Hope that’s helps ease your mind a little. Thanks for the question :)

[@hamnah4glte979]

cree thank you!!

[@edithkao5050]

So if I applied fir regular decision it would not be binding?

[@meltemll5]

So are most of the schools binding even if you apply during regular decision?

[@cree38]

No, College Partners are only binding for the National College Match process. Thanks for the question btw :)

[@emilyalejandrasalazar464]

❤️❤️😭

[@assitantraore7320]

I have a question, what if you haven't become a finalist but you have a questbridge account, should you still write that you're apart of questbridge

[@mma4842]

No I don’t think so

[@kayciebell8979]

If you apply regular, do you lose the questbridge scholarship or no? I saw something saying that on the website.

[@cree38]

I’m living for these great questions!! It is true that the 4-year full-ride isn’t guaranteed for regular decision applicants. But, I will say that the scholarships from qb partners are usually generous AND there is always, ALWAYS the option to appeal a Financial Aid award.

[@cortneepete2018]

Did you apply to QB with regular decision? I want to apply to Cornell, but its no a college listed in the application. If I apply through reg decision will it effect my chances of being a finalist and matching with a college?

[@Jean-rg1mk]

I know this is late, but for anyone now, QB is all early decision, Cornell is not a college partner. If you applied to Cornell reg dec, it wouldn't effect your QB application at all, but if you get matched you have to go that matched school if it's binding

[@301reacts8]

What was your sat????????

[@lovenoirrr]

1460 she said it in another video

[@amidatmohammed3292]
