QuestBridge is a national nonprofit based in Palo Alto, California that
connects the nation's most exceptional students from low-income backgrounds
with leading institutions of higher education and further life opportunities
. By recruiting, developing, and motivating these students — beginning in
high school through college to their early career — QuestBridge aims to
help these students attend the nations’ best colleges and to support them
to achieve success in their respective careers and communities.

The National College Match is an alternative, generally binding, and free
application process for high-school seniors. It helps students apply to and
be selected for admission at partner colleges with full four-year
scholarships.
The number of students applying for the National College Match Application
has increased each year, from 6,647 students in 2010 to 7,821 students in
2011 to 9,577 students in 2012 and to 13,264 in 2015.[15]
For the Class of 2015, 4,895 (37%) of the applicants were named QuestBridge
finalists, and 657 (13%) received a College Match Scholarship.
In addition, 2,257 finalists (46.1%) were offered acceptance and financial
aid to a partner college, either through the National Match or through
Regular Decision.
Of the 4,895 QuestBridge Finalists, 71% were first generation to attend
college and 89% were in the top 10% of their class.
92% came from families with an income of $65,000 or less. The median income
was $33,177 and 79% were eligible for free or reduced-priced lunch.[16]
