As many as 30 low-income high-achieving students will matriculate at BU in fall 2022 on full scholarships, with no loans or parent contributions thanks to a new partnership between the University and a nonprofit promoting college access.

BU becomes the 45th institution to partner with Questbridge, and the partnership caps two years of work on the collaboration, Walter says.
Money for the scholarships will be provided by BU, which spent $290 million on financial aid in the 2020 fiscal year.

QuestBridge then forwards their applications

In a wide-ranging, hour-long conversation over Zoom on a recent morning, Robert A. Brown, in the midst of his 16th, and by far most challenging, year as Boston University president, talks about what he learned from the past fall semester and what lessons he hopes can be applied to the University’s current spring session and beyond. All topics were on the table, from hybrid teaching and learning to COVID-19 testing and vaccines to the challenge of bringing more faculty and staff back to campus after a year of mostly working from home and even to whether online learning could become a permanent part of the BU culture.
