On the application for filling out my college, I am given the option of undecided, picking a accredited college, or picking a non accredited college. I haven’t been admitted anywhere let alone know where I will be attending. But I also know for some scholarships I have to state that ‘this college is my first choice’ in order to receive the NM scholarship at that school.
So should I leave it as undecided for now and when I decide where I will enroll should I change my status to that college?
Thanks
Either was doesn’t really matter at this point. You can leave undecided or pick one now. Because you can change it later. And the colleges that offer scholarships for national merit finalists who list that school as their first choice require that to be done sometime in March/April. Check with schools you are interested in for the date they look for that selection. And remember to change it to the appropriate school within that time frame. And some schools may not hold firm to that deadline but you may not want to chance it.
