National College Match - 2009-2010

<p>@natim
I got an official letter thing from Questbridge maybe a week ago or so and an official letter from my college this week.</p>

<p>natim, do you mean finalists who got picked up in the EA or RD round by a college? Ds asked ND to consider him for Rd, but they put him in the EA round. He got the fat envelope everyone who is accepted gets.</p>

<p>no, I meant finalists who got matched. Since some of those schools don’t have early admissions, I was just wondering if those schools sent out any sort of paper confirmation besides an email</p>

<p>I got my admission packet from Stanford.</p>

<p>Hey everyone.</p>

<p>Been a while since i posted, stopping by to see how every is doing.</p>

<p>How are those RD apps going for everyone that wasn’t matched? Where else did everyone apply other than QB partner schools?</p>

<p>DS’s four acceptances thus far are in the thread at the top of the parents’ forum. I hope every adds their good news there. It’s an easy way to see everyone’s acceptances in one place and a helpful resource if you have a question about a particular college.</p>

<p>Merry Christmas!!! : )</p>

<p>Hey guys, </p>

<p>I’m confused as to where to send our supplement.</p>

<p>Are we supposed to send it via email, commonapp, mail, what? They are unclear of their directions.</p>

<p>Also, for the fee waivers, isn’t it that all you have to do is click others on fee waivers on the commonapp and you’re done?</p>

<p>this is hard…</p>

<p>IS it applicable for International students too? I mean…can international student look in this thread for scholarships ?</p>

<p>@bklee1: I would mail it. There’s a reason as to why most of the supplements are in PDF files instead of just saying submit it through common app. Amherst emailed me and told me specifically to mail the supplement and I think the PDF with the supplement says mail to such and such address. </p>

<p>@skox818: This specific thread is just for the QuestBridge College Match Scholarship. Some QB schools do accept international students but they are like the top of the top tier schools and really hard to get into.</p>

<p>Did anyone get any confirmation from schools that your app has been forwarded by Questbridge?</p>

<p>So I got Matched to Princeton, but before, I had already applied to the UC’s. I didn’t send in official test score reports though (which cost money). Should I just withdraw my application? Or should I wait? Would I get rejected, for an incomplete application?</p>

<p>Also, I submitted incomplete applications to Columbia among other schools. (like, only Part 1) How should I go about withdrawing those applications? Thanks.</p>

<p>tomjonesistheman - I had done exactly the same thing. I just e-mailed columbia and asked them to withdraw my application (you have to include your id number, birthdate and full name). After calling the UC’s they told me to send a letter with the same info as for columbia. I didn’t send an official score report either, but a few days ago I was accepted to UC Davis. I had already e-mailed them and sent a letter. I quickly e-mailed them about the issue, but I’m sure they won’t respond for another week. According to their office though, a letter should be sufficient.</p>

<p>For any Questbridge Finalists applying to UPenn RD, are you guys having trouble submitting the supplement on Common App? Because I’ve been trying to click submit for the past day, and every time I do it the page just refreshes :confused: I’ve been able to submit other supplements too.</p>

<p>@Dell4573</p>

<p>I had the same problem as you did when I tried to submit my UPenn supplement, but eventually got through. I think you just have to try several times.</p>

<p>Yeah, I finally got through now.</p>

<p>@terp2014: yes, i’ve gotten confirmation from bowdoin, vassar, and swarthmore, but none of the others have contacted me</p>

<p>a lot of schools want us to fill out common app/separate applications but also accept our forwarded QB apps. i know they’re usually considered supplementary material, but do you think will the colleges actually read our essays from our QB apps? just wondering…</p>

<p>i wasn’t accepted to be a finalist in the questbridge program but i read that i can forward my application as a supplement to the common app for many schools such as University of Chicago and Rice University but how do I do this?</p>

<p>To Stepharine104216, the deadline for forwarding apps was on December 15th. I’m not sure if you can request for forwarding anymore…</p>
