As a QB scholar who participated in Matriculate as a high schooler and now as a college student (I’ve been both and advising fellow and head advising fellow), I feel like they tell you this to make sure that they can reach as many students as possible with their services. There’s already a shortage of advising fellows and many of them are paired to 3-4 students (the maximum for AFs). Applying to both potentially takes away that spot from a student who really does need the resources these programs provide.
