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

It finally came today! Homeschool student in Kentucky. Good luck to all!

I’m getting increasingly nervous as there’s still no word up in Michigan.

does anyone know if, in the past years, there was a similar timeline where schools do not receive the mail after a week? I am developing a theory that although NM says they went out on Monday, it takes a few days to execute 15000 pieces of mail which would explain our collective experience.

My daughter’s came in the mail today at her school in Texas. That took a long time!!

So has anyone not gotten a letter when others at their school did? Does that mean you did not get it? No one at my school has heard yet just wondering if that happens

Principal notification received today in AZ. Can you hear my sigh of relief?

any word from people in NJ? I’m in NJ and I haven’t gotten any mail, email, or notification from my principal.

Do you mind sharing what major city you are close to in Texas?

Yay! Congratulations to your daughter! What part of Texas, if you don’t mind?

Notification today in Nebraska! (Many but not all schools in our area were released early due to deteriorating road conditions.)

Last year, there were quite a few kids who received their letter at home before their school admitted to receiving their official certificates in the mail. So, hopefully, next Monday/Tuesday the letters-to-home will be arriving.

Hey NJ, nothing in Eastern PA yet either.

Any norcal student get it?

CONGRATULATIONS @TXRunningMom ??? Still waiting for any news here at my DD school in north Texas…

We’re are visiting UTD next week for their National Merit preview day so I really hope we find out for sure by the end of this week.
Are the letters actually getting mailed from Evanston, IL? We’re less than 20 miles from Evanston and haven’t heard anything yet. Mail delivery around here can be quite unreliable so I don’t know if the mail delivery is the issue or if the school just doesn’t deal with mail right away

@tabbychiro We are also visiting UTD for their National Merit Preview Day on Monday Feb 18. We are from AZ and so far no notification yet from the principal but hoping to find out before the end of the week.

Nothing in NorCal today

Nothing in MN, counselor said no word yet.

Nothing in Miami

We have a new principal this year, so I doubt the kids will be notified when the certificates arrive. In fact, in September, he forgot to sign the semifinalist certificates, and kinda kerfunkled the whole recognition ceremony :-S

We’re in Pensacola and D19 received her notification today.
