<p>S has already accepted the UT-Dallas NM finalist package (near-full-ride).</p>

<p>Has anyone yet received the OFFICIAL award? It would be listed on the: <a href=“https://osa.nationalmerit.org/loginOSA.html”>https://osa.nationalmerit.org/loginOSA.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I’ve received the official notification in my OSA account from Alabama.</p>

6

<p>^^^ When did you first see it (or get notice)?</p>

7

<p>DD also received her official notification from Alabama today. </p>

<p>I just got the letter from NMSC today for UTD. I’m not sure what this is. The letter says $750 per year. Is this in addition to the Nation Merit scholarship I’ve already accepted from UTD?</p>

<p>Yes, Urban, it is. And don’t forget to renew it with NMSC every year. They will send you a letter each spring. Also, be aware that the checks (for $325) will come each semester (well after the semester starts–like in Oct. and Feb.)</p>

<p>Official information cannot be released to anyone but immediate family or the school principal until May 28.</p>

<p>S1 did officially get notified. NMF portion of the scholarship is $1250 per year.</p>

12

<p>S14 received NMF scholarship from Colorado State of $500 per year. I’m guessing it will just reduce one of the other scholarships since he has COA covered. </p>

13

<p>My son received $2000 per year from NMSC and Fordham. He called the school and they said he could keep half since he had already gotten the Semifinalist Full Tuition Scholarship.</p>

<p>My Daughter received a letter in the mail yesterday (dated Jun 12th 2014) congratulating her on being selected as a winner of the National Merit NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY Scholarship. She leaves for orientation later this week.</p>

<p>Received a letter of congratulations last week from NMSC on being selected as a winner of NM scholarship to The University of Chicago. Recipients were requested to log in to the MNSC portal to accept. Congratulations to all the school sponsored scholarship recipients! </p>
