The Quest Scholars
Program encompasses two programs: QuestLeadership and QuestBridge.
QuestLeadership is a part of the Quest Scholars Program, and is a free mentorship and leadership-training program for exceptionally bright, low income students with interests in higher education, leadership, and professional careers. QuestLeadership begins with a five-week summer residential program on the Stanford campus for high school students entering their junior and senior years. Its support continues through the rest of high school and the undergraduate college experience—providing college admissions counseling and more. Now in its eleventh year of operation, QuestLeadership graduates have enjoyed tremendous success in their college and graduate school endeavors. 100% of Quest Scholars have gone on to college, and approximately 80% of Quest students attend Stanford, Harvard, Berkeley, MIT, or other Ivy League schools.
QuestBridge is a program that links bright, motivated low-income students with educational and scholarship opportunities at some of the nation's best colleges. In 2004, over 100 students were admitted to top universities with QuestBridge assistance.You can read more about these opportunities, which are all free of charge, at www.questbridge.org. |
