National Merit scholarships

Paying for College

<p>Hey-</p>

<p>I put down a first choice college on my National Merit application. The school, I know, offers scholarships to finalists. My questions is that, then, will I more likely be overlooked for the scholarships National Merit itself gives out?</p>

<p>No, the school you put down will have no effect upon whether or not you get a NM scholarship. The NM awards are given out first, followed by the individual college awards.</p>
