Do schools need to see my SAT score to give me NM scholarships?

Paying for College National Merit Aid
1

<p>I am a National Merit Semi-Finalist and I am trying to decide whether to send my SAT scores or my ACT scores to colleges. I scored a 2070 on the SAT (2140 ignoring the essay), which is high enough to confirm my PSAT score, right? However, I scored a 33 on the ACT, so I'd rather send that to colleges. Will colleges want to see my SAT instead to give me Nation Merit Scholarships? I suppose I could send both, but I'd rather just send ACT if that will work.</p>

<p>If colleges see that you are a NMF, they know that your SAT score was good enough to confirm your PSAT score.</p>

<p>You will still need to submit your SAT score to National Merit Corp.</p>

<p>Some schools require that you submit all scores (both SAT and ACT).</p>

<p>Thanks for the replies! Yes, I’ve already sent my SAT scores to the NM Corp. I don’t think any of the schools I am applying to require all scores, but I’ll double check.</p>
