Matched With Their Dream Colleges: BASIS QuestBridge Match Scholarship Winners

QuestBridge National College Match is a scholarship program that connects low-income high school seniors with some of the best colleges in the nation.

To be eligible for the award, students must display a high level of academic achievement. Most recipients of the QuestBridge Match Scholarship are in the top 5–10% of their graduating class and have higher-than-average standardized test scores.

Winners receive a four-year, full-ride scholarship at one of QuestBridge’s college partners—which include many of the top colleges and universities in the U.S. These scholarships cover the full cost of attendance, including tuition, housing, food, books, supplies, and travel expenses.

QuestBridge had over 20,800 applicants for the 2023 National College Match Scholarship. In the end, 2,242 seniors were selected as finalists and matched with colleges from across the country.

We are proud to share that this year, six BASIS Charter School seniors were honored with this highly coveted scholarship.
