***2018 National Merit Finalist Thread****

@FSUdad93 my son applied to UF as well in anticipation of SB4 passing for the Benacquisto being available to OOS NMF. Have you confirmed that this scholarship for NMF will be available for this fall? The financial aid office on Monday when I called had no clue. Then Tuesday we emailed and got confirmation that it would be available but the info he sent still said Florida resident requirement. I assume that criteria just had not been changed but wanted to know if you also heard from them it was good this year for our admitted kids that are OOS NMF. My son and I will be visiting UF in 10 days to tour campus and visit with CS, Honors and Research representatives. Also visiting UCF again that week. Thanks db
