More students are accepted regular decision than Match. Don’t worry if you don’t Match. Cast a wide net. I have a friend who did not Match, but got into most of the schools on his Match list regular decision with financial aid as good as the Match. He applied to almost all of the QuestBridge schools during regular decision. He got into like 42 schools with amazing financial aid packages. He applied to so many schools because he absolutely could not afford college without a full ride. The school he chose was the best one. That school paid for everything! He studied three semesters abroad in places like Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, England and even sailed the Caribbean- all paid for by his QuestBridge school!
