Scholarships that need to be renewed yearly..

<p>I saw your thread when I clicked on “Lastest Post”: anyway, it shouldn’t have anything to do with GPA, since none of these schools offer merit based scholarships…</p>

<p>Edit: From the QB Yale page:</p>

<p>

You need to reapply for Yale’s need-based financial aid every year, which will be adjusted to meet any change in need. In addition to family income and assets, Yale takes into account family size (including number of siblings in college), and documented special circumstances (such as extraordinary medical expenses) in determining financial need.

<p>I would think that it means that if your family income suddenly changes, as in for some reason your parents start making $200,000+ a year, your FA package may change even though you got in through Questbridge. I’m not sure though - call QB to ask just in case?</p>

<p>You know, if you’re low income enough qualify for QB, you would probably still get the same FA offer (full ride, only $2500 or so of work study) had you applied through the regular route. QB is only advantageous in that it offers you a different, longer application that allows you to highlight how your family’s financial circumstances might have impacted your life. FA-wise, it’s the same.</p>
