<p>Any significance?</p>
<p>karatekid…It depends on what particular schools you’re interested in attending, but National Achievement can have quite a bit of significance. For instance, the University of Alabama currently offers a near full-ride scholarship to NA Finalists. I’m sure there are other schools as well, so if you search the National Merit threads you may find a more comprehensive link. Here’s a link describing Bama’s scholarship. Good Luck!!</p>

<p>Thanks for the reply! Would you happen to know where I could find a list of schools offering similar opportunities?</p>
<p>karatekid, check out this forum’s maintained thread: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/national-merit-scholarships/649276-nmf-scholarships-updated-compilation-40.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/national-merit-scholarships/649276-nmf-scholarships-updated-compilation-40.html</a></p>
<p>It is usually the case that the National Achievement finalists receive the same treatment as National Merit finalists.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>Do look into Alabama’s offer. Bama has a lot of National Achievement and National Merit kids on campus.</p>
<p>Will do! 10char</p>
