Fall Fly-In Programs for High School Seniors

Explore a list of QuestBridge college partner fly-in programs for prospective students. 

Each fall, many QuestBridge college partners host their own fly-in programs that prospective students can apply to. While the application requirements and program details can vary depending on the institution, the overall goal of such programs is to provide an opportunity for high school seniors, who may not have had the opportunity otherwise, to travel to and visit the school for free or a low cost. By submitting an application to one of the programs below, students may be invited to visit a school's campus for multiple days, spend the night on campus, and have their travel to and from the campus covered by the school. 

Explore the list of our college partners that offer fall fly-in programs for high school seniors, and consider applying by their respective deadlines. Some programs may have overlapping dates, however students should apply to as many programs as they are interested in even if there are conflicting dates as they may not be selected for each program.

Please note:

  • Official dates and deadlines for fly-in programs come from the college partner's website directly. Refer to the colleges' websites for confirmation of the information provided below. 

  • Fly-in program application review and decisions are made by college partners and not by QuestBridge.

  • This list may not be comprehensive of all available fly-in programs for QuestBridge college partners. If you do not see a QuestBridge college partner listed below, please check their website to confirm fly-in program availability or other opportunities.
