Welcome

Letter from the MIT Quest Liaison

Welcome to the MIT QSN page!

My name is Quynh P. Nguyen, currently in my second year at the Institute studying Biology and Chemistry. If you’re an interested applicant or a Quest Scholar hoping to learn more about MIT, feel free to explore our page and read all about us!

MIT is an amazing place to be, with numerous opportunities to do whatever you want. Have a research project you want to work on? There’s a professor who will help you get started. Need help with physics or chemistry or differential equations? There are five different groups that offer free tutoring any time you need it. Want to dance away the stress of constant problem-setting? Join Dancetroupe, learn a dance, and perform at the end of the semester. MIT students don’t believe in limits and we definitely do not color within the lines.

The Quest Scholars Network of MIT is a relatively new group on campus, welcoming our first Scholars only three years ago. We spend most of our time eating good food and having amazing conversations. These Scholars are among some of the most impressive people I know. Despite all the obstacles and adversities that would have deterred others, we have pushed through and accomplished so much. We are involved, driven, dedicated, and you can find us in many different groups on campus – athletics, newspaper, dance, tutoring groups, community service organizations, Greek life, and so much more. Most importantly, we all love this crazy place even after sleepless nights doing impossible problem sets, even after crazy weeks with six tests, three assignments, and two essays (this may be an exaggeration – five tests is more like it). MIT is our home and I hope that one day, it will be also be yours.

Best wishes,
Quynh P. Nguyen, MIT '15
