[quote=Anonymous]How is it any more work than applying normally? It's an alternative process. The match acceptance rate is ~15%, and about half of the finalists get in regular decision (Match is only the first round). That's a huge improvement over the 5-25% acceptance rate virtually all of these schools have. I'm sure that the acceptance rate wouldn't change much if these students applied via Common App instead, but why should they? There already is a consolidated application process which tags them as a QB Finalist (a hook), enables them a central place to apply to 39 top schools, and gives them benefits once they matriculate (alumni network, campus community, etc.). Unless your goal was a non-QuestBridge partner school like Harvard or Cornell, what would be the justification to not apply?[/quote]
