| To clarify, need-blind does not necessarily mean the colleges don't know your income level (after all, being low-income is a challenge in itself that shapes many life choices and could warrant some explanation on the application). Need-blind just means that a school like Princeton will not discriminate based on income. Princeton does not have a select number of spots to give out to low-income students. Princeton will take the most qualified applicants regardless of their financial background. If you put care into your Questbridge application, there is no way that applying through QuestBridge will hurt your chances. Never, of course, try to enter the college match with schools you wouldn't attend in a heatbeat. |
