National Merit Finalist ~ update or not?

My daughter just received the official National Merit Finalist designation letter. Is this something that she should update schools on? Her applications had the semi-finalist designation. Do they just assume that the majority make it to the finalist round? Thanks!

I would send an update. Just have her keep it short and sweet.

Thank you. Will do.

Would you send it just to the schools that offer an NMF scholarship, or to all schools?

My D’s college said no need to notify since they automatically receive a list of all finalists from the board

Thank you @slaudsmom ~ she never sent out the update ~ and now I’m glad I didn’t push it.
