<p>Has anyone received any notification yet(either through your school or in your mail) about being selected as a National Merit Finalist?</p>
<p>From what i understand, letters should be coming out very soon if they haven't already...</p>
<p>Everyone please post anything they have heard recently, thanks!</p>
<p>I haven’t yet, and I’m dying a little! However, I was under the impression that the schools received letters on February 2nd, while it seems that that’s the date they are mailed, so we should be hearing in the next couple days, yeah?</p>
<p>There is another whole thread on it. </p>
<p>From website:
letters MAILED to schools on 2/2
letters MAILED to homes on 2/9</p>
<p>hang in there, won’t be long. but, in case you haven’t seen it - people who didn’t make it to finalist have been getting letters (about 2 weeks ago). </p>
<p>fingers crossed no one has a glitch, and those who haven’t heard yet are hopefully IN. </p>
<p>Luck to all.</p>
<p>Hey guys…</p>
<p>You’ve likely have made it!!!</p>
<p>The REJECTION letters were sent to homes the first week of January. So, if you didn’t get a rejection letter, then you’re a finalist!!!</p>
<p>Congrats!!!</p>
<p>jilliant11, the waiting is killing me too! </p>
<p>I think everyone is right in saying that if we haven’t received any notification yet, we’ve probably made it, but i just can’t wait to see the finalist letter myself!</p>
<p>I just received notification that I am a finalist like 20 min ago… You guys should be finding out soon 
good luck…</p>
<p>Congrats cheeky!</p>
<p>Hoosier…I’ve seen your stats (on our “state uni” board ) - nothing to worry about!!! But I totally understand your not believing until it’s here. So I won’t congratulate you yet.</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone!!! It’s so exciting!!! </p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Cheeky: did you get a letter or your school told you?</p>
<p>I went this morning and talked to my principal and he had just received the letter/certificate in the mail this morning. I think they send notification to us next week… :)</p>
<p>Thanks R124687 :)</p>
<p>I’m with you, Mom2 … CONGRATULATIONS to all! Nothing official here in Arkansas yet … but we eagerly await word!</p>
<p>Congrats cheeky! </p>
<p>Still waiting in Alabama…</p>
<p>Cheeky, where are you located? Might give us a better picture of how long to expect to wait.</p>
<p>Thanks…and congrats!!</p>
<p>congrats cheeky!</p>
<p>My son just got a call from the principal saying that he’ll just opened the NMF certificate. Woohoo! Praise God!! We’re in Kansas. Good luck to each of you.</p>
<p>Thanks for the tip, mom2kids!</p>
<p>Most SMs get advanced to finalist standing (about 90%), so the ones who didn’t make it are probably people who didn’t fill out an application or had a record of misconduct reported by their GC, etc.</p>
<p>Congrats to all who’ve heard and good luck to those that are waiting. Waiting in TN :)</p>
<p>Waiting in CA. We know the likelihood is about 99% but it will be nice to have that piece of paper</p>
<p>I got mine! Good luck to everyone else!</p>
<p>Thanks for all the congrats… 
I live in North Georgia so the letters have made it this far as of yet… I’m sure everyone else’s letters are on the way! <em>fingers crossed</em></p>
