What to Expect
The 2024 National College Admissions Conferences will be live-streamed through RingCentral, a video conference platform. We will broadcast presentations and workshops led by our college partners' representatives and QuestBridge Staff, and the conference will end with a virtual college fair.
Prepare to meet college admissions representatives at the college fair by watching our playlist of college partner videos. After watching each video, take our college partner quiz (coming soon!) by the deadline for a chance to win a gift card!
If you want to interact with admissions representatives during the conference, you are encouraged to have your webcam and/or microphone ready. Attendees can also interact via a live chat box. If your schedule does not allow you to attend for the full day, you will receive the link to a recording of the event sessions afterward.

RingCentral can be accessed through a web browser (Google Chrome works best) on a computer or a mobile app on a tablet or smartphone. We encourage you to use a computer with speakers, a microphone, and a webcam for the best online experience. We recommend that you find a location with a good internet connection.
