<p>Does anyone know how much GWU gives National Merit finalists who name GWU as their #1 choice by the due date? This would help us decide if GWU is in the mix. Would this amount reduce any merit aid already offered? My daughter was awarded $25,000 merit aid. Would the GWU NM award reduce the $25,000 award by the same amount? Stacking would be preferably. What's the due date for naming them as your #1 school?</p>
<p>in case anyone’s interested, you cannot stack merit awards. So, it would either be the NM award or the school’s scholarship. It’s not that much money, she would be better off taking the $25,000 school merit aid.</p>
