<p>In CA - My son recieved his National Merit Finalist notification today. The school said it came in on Sat. He got a small Certificate of Merit. Does he need to send in anything else or do they just choose scholarship winners from the info. that he already sent?</p>

24

<p>Son was notified today by hs principal that he is a finalist.</p>

25

<p>My d just told me she was told today by the principal that she made it!!</p>

26

<p>What's a "National Achievement Finalist"?</p>

<p>Still haven't heard on Merit, but then again, no one at my school has heard - since we had twelve Semi-Finalists, I'd think at least one of us would get it.</p>

<p>Congratulations to you all!</p>

<p>natl achievement is like natl merit but its for african american students</p>

28

<p>Cool, thanks for clueing me in. And congrats to you :)</p>

<p>My daughter, here in Arkansas, was notified today that she has also made National Merit Finalist.</p>

<p>Congratulations to everyone who is selected as a finalist.</p>

<p>I got an email from a college congratulating me on my finalist status but haven't been told yet, lol.</p>

31

<p>I found out today that I got finalist as well.</p>

32

<p>My principal told me today that my finalist notification arrived late yesterday.</p>

33

<p>I STILL haven't heard.</p>

<p>My school is so slow because we have 800 seniors and had like 60 semi-finalists or something.</p>

<p>I want to KNOW!!!</p>

34

<p>still waiting.............</p>

35

<p>me too...</p>

<p>does anyone know if there is another application for finalists to fill out, like we did for semi-finalist? (I'm assuming I made finalist...since I didn't recieve notification stating otherwise...)</p>

36

<p>Yep, waiting here in Texas, too - sure makes me nervous!</p>

<p>No, once you're a finalist you're done. Just wait and hope for a scholarship. It's kinda random after that.</p>
