Higher Education has always been very important to me. My life turned upside down when I was 17, and my dream to attend Yale or any university at the time was broken. I know that there are many talented and ambitious young people all around the world who happen to be in situations like mine was, and if a platform like Questbridge can help those people go to their dream universities, break generational barriers, and achieve their dreams… that is a mission I want to support with all of me. :)

QuestBridge seriously changed my life. I had to opportunity to attend Stanford University through the National College Match program, and knew that I was accepted before many of my peers, allowing me to focus on my part-time jobs at the time. They do a great job with an expanded network of support throughout college years, too.

Recently, I learned that a colleague and friend credits Questbridge for helping her achieve some incredible feats: attending Stanford, becoming a topnotch engineer...I'm inspired to know that Questbridge is supporting young, talented people from diverse backgrounds and I'm honored to now be a small part of their work!

Higher Education is the foundation of a healthy society, economic stability, lower crime, and greater equality.  I'm delighted to be able to support QuestBridge who believe and invest in our children.

QuestBridge is a powerful platform that connects the nation’s brightest students from low-income backgrounds with leading institutions of higher education and further opportunities. QuestBridge aims to increase the percentage of talented low-income students attending the nation’s best universities and the ranks of national leadership itself. I'm on their West Coast Advisory Board. 

Via Tim:
77% of QuestBridge scholars in 2019 were among the first generation in their families to attend a four-year college. 93% were within the top 10% of their graduating class.



To address the opportunity gap, higher education is key.

QuestBridge creates programs for talented low-income students to access exceptional educational and life opportunities.

QuestBridge has successfully shaped the lives of the most promising, low-income students in the nation and has helped them unlock billions in scholarships.

Every year, there are over 30,000 outstanding high school students from low-income backgrounds who are academically qualified to attend the nation’s top colleges. Over 80% of them do not apply to even ONE selective college and they remain highly under-represented on leading college campuses.

Many of these promising students assume they can’t afford an education at a top college. Others lack the education about what it takes to apply to a selective college, or simply assume they can’t be admitted.

When low-income students miss the opportunity to apply to and attend great colleges, this has a profound effect on their futures. Many end up reaching below their actual academic potential, or they don't attend college at all. Of those who attend college, most don't graduate.

This vast amount of untapped talent equates to a staggering loss in human potential. As America strives to remain competitive in our global society, promising students from across the economic spectrum are vital to the wealth and future of our nation-at-large.

Using innovative data methods to target and reach thousands of high-achieving, low-income students, we provide programs that help students reach their fullest potential, which could include attending a top-tier college on a full scholarship. We also provide these students with ongoing resources and a supportive community of Scholars to help them thrive in college and beyond.
