Two IB Bartow seniors have received full-ride college scholarships through the prestigious QuestBridge program.
Jacob Heist and Maia Munera were among 2,550 seniors selected for this year’s QuestBridge National College Match. Heist received a full scholarship to Cornell University, and Munera received a scholarship to Rice University.
Every year, the nonprofit QuestBridge organization connects “high-achieving high school seniors from low-income backgrounds” with full scholarships to the nation’s top universities, in an effort to expand access and affordability. Each student receives a financial aid package that covers tuition, housing, food, books, supplies and travel expenses.
Congratulations to Jacob and Maia, and thank you to QuestBridge!
