National Merit Finalist (Class of 2019) - rejection/acceptance letter

@Carolinasun Certificate dimensions are 8.25x5.75 in. (Don’t know about envelope size)

No letter yet (in Boston) but school gave her the certificate this morning :slight_smile:

I sympathize with y’all who are waiting on school notification of finalist status. For my D15 the principal was on vacation and I talked his secretary into rooting through his unopened mail with me. We didn’t find it, but his staff had a good “crazy parent” story to tell at my expense.

NMSC mail arriving today in Florida - saw in USPS informed delivery. regular size envelope.

We were lucky last year. Someone on the board had access to “the book of finalists” we messaged our info to her and she confirmed results. Maybe there is a counselor on this board with access?

Finally!! Got USPS informed delivery picture!! It’s here!!! <:-P

Thank goodness! Informed delivery showing S19’s letter. We are in the CO mountains.

@dpBU23 we’re in DFW area too! Still no word as of mail yesterday…we’re so antsy to have confirmation! Can I gather by your handle that your child is going to Baylor??? My DD’s hoping for BU23 also! Lots hinging on this letter we’re waiting on!!!

@valarrie yes, my S plans to go to BU where his sister is now. Informed delivery portends good news today and ironically, I just got a note from the school counselor that she received the certificate. It’s an unfortunate year for Refents’ Gold changes but like you, we now wait prayerfully for early March announcements!

Yes–Informed Delivery shows a biz-sized envelope for S19 … Denver area!

@dpBU23 congratulations!!! That’s wonderful news! Yes, added some stress since BU changed up the scholarship tied to NM. I know we’ve waited this long but I think the next two weeks are going to continue to be brutal waiting on any news from I2E. I am hoping and praying that we’ll hear either way very close to that March 1st timeline that Baylor has laid out. One thing at a time, though! Hoping we’ll get the NM letter SOON! So glad to hear they’re being delivered in our area ?

There is an envelope fom NMSC for DD. School has not notified her yet.

Just sent DD a photo of the NM envelope, and moments later…she sends me back a picture of the certificate she just received from the school! :wink:

Finally, it is now confirmed yesterday that my son is a national merit in Iowa.

For future national merit semifinalist, 2Cs by itself is not an issue to progress to finalist. Here is his statistics from Freshman to Junior year:

  1. GPA 3.54 (Unweighted) 3.81 (Weighted),
    2 6 AP classes (Sophomore and Junior)
  2. 5 AP classed (Senior)
  3. 29 A’s. 14 B’s and 1 C and 1 C+ (Until Junior year)
  4. Many extra-curricular activities.

He is also admitted to UF and FSU.

Thank you

No word from school yet, but we seen an envelope in USPS Informed Deliery today. Hooray!! Northern Calif

Still no word from school and nothing in Informed Delivery in Arizona :frowning:

Received informed delivery notice in Michigan this morning. Looking forward to actually receiving it in the mail. Congratulations to all of your accomplished students. =D>

EDIT: School counselor has not received notification yet.

@valarrie

Today’s USPS informed delivery e-mail has the letter for my son (we are in DFW).

As I posted the comment, my mailman delivered the letter too just now :slight_smile:

Nothing here in PA. I’m starting to think that Newman and Kramer are driving around with our mail looking for a dump that will take Eileen’s muffin stumps.
