<p>I got accepted today. I got placed in general studies because business administration is full. I am a National Merit Semifinalist. I have called like 5 numbers, been transferred a thousand times, and no one can help me. I'm trying to figure out how to get into business. No one knows if I can do this or how I would do it. Does anyone here know what I should do next? Business Honors said if I get into their program that I'll be put into BA, but if I'm not, then they won't.</p>
<p>A&M really tries hard to attract NM Scholars. The notification for finalists will be out in the next week. If I were you, I would contact Casey Ricketts (head of national scholar recruiting) in the honors department. Tell him that you really want to attend A&M but want to do business. I am sure that he will be of assistance and will know who you should contact, etc. I hope this helps. :)</p>
<p>^That’s exactly what I did after I posted this. He was the last person I could think of. He said he’ll talk to people at Mays tomorrow and let me know. I was lazy and didn’t think spots would fill up. I dropped the ball on this one. Hopefully he can bail me out.</p>
<p>jrt: Glad to hear you called. Keep us posted! Sending positive thoughts your way. :)</p>
<p>Good news! Being a NMF has its perks.</p>
<p>jrt: Great news! It has been our experience that A&M does go above and beyond for NM students. :)</p>
