Does Quest Bridge Full tuition - include room and board? That’s a big piece of this question. I would say if they answer is yes - heavens - apply and hope you get it - ED or not and be thankful if you do.

Most schools will not meet full need. Some do - most are the Ivy’s.

Depends on your stats, need, etc.

But full ride merits are hard to come by. Most schools do not meet full need based on financial situation. You might be able to combine the two for a full ride at some schools - but that will take research and targeting. If you are a senior - you are running out of time as most of those apps have to be in by Nov. 1.

Keep in mind - even if you get a full ride - you still have other school expenses, and travel costs, and spending money.

If you are a low income - use what ever strategy you can do get the best deal you can.

If the QB is ED - binding - and only full tuition - you might not apply to those schools in QB. Target the other schools that are not ED/binding.

Does that make sense?
