Krystyna McKinnis made what may be the most important list of her life well before Christmas.
Most college-bound high school students spend the fall of their senior year considering where to apply â and their chances of being accepted usually factor into that decision.
But in September and October, McKinnis ranked the five colleges sheâd most like to attend in the hope that one of them might award her an all-inclusive scholarship through the Questbridge National College Match.
The national nonprofit offers standout students from low-income families access to Ivy League schools and other leading liberal arts institutions and research universities, where they may otherwise be hesitant to apply.
