QUEST Bids Farewell to Graduating Seniors

On May 2, 2007, QUEST bid farewell to graduating seniors in Cohort 12. The Senior Farewell event included a Italian themed dinner, certificate presentation and slide show. Many students in the senior class have accepted prestigious positions at consulting firms, engineering companies and businesses both large and small. Others have plans to attend graduate programs, obtain teaching positions or  travel in the upcoming months following graduation. Cohort 12 students have left a deep and impressive footprint on the program as they are the first class of QUEST students to be featured in the QUEST Consulting Conference (Fall 2006).

The students are of the highest character, intellect and creativity that the University of Maryland has to offer. The class will be missed by all, and the staff wishes the absolute best as they venture on to the world outside of undergraduate education.

QUEST Welcomes Cohort 15

This spring, over 200 students sought out to join QUEST, a nearly 24% increase from last recruiting season. QUEST accepts only 75 students each year, with a limited waitlist. The process is highly competitive as candidates complete a challenging written application and only some are invited to participate in a group interview. QUEST is proud to announce a 10% increase in admittance of students from the College of Computer, Mathematical and Physical Sciences to the entering cohort. The program is delighted to welcome the incoming students of Cohort 15 into QUEST.
