QuestBridge is a national nonprofit that connects the nation’s most exceptional, low-income youth with leading institutions of higher education and further life opportunities. By recruiting, developing, and motivating these students — beginning in high school through college to their early career — QuestBridge aims to help talented, low-income students attend the nation’s best colleges and to support them to achieve success in their respective careers and communities.
This year, two Palm Desert High School students were selected from a pool of over 17,900 applications and matched with a partner school to receive a full, four year scholarship to a top school of their choice!
Emiliano Camacho (12) and Emma Graham (12) matched with MIT and Grinnell, respectively. In addition one more student, Clarissa Bycott (12), who was chosen as a finalist will be going through the QuestBridge Regular Decision process and have results in March 2023.
DSUSD is incredibly proud of these three Aztecs and we are excited to see what the future holds for each of them!
