<p>Thanks, ellemenope, </p>
<p>No kidding, Carleton's Web site </p>
<p><a href="http://www.carleton.edu/admissions/nationalmerit/index.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.carleton.edu/admissions/nationalmerit/index.html</a> </p>
<p>has more information about the National Merit Scholarship program than the program's own Web site has. And, I must confess, I only remembered the bit about the SAT scores counting for moving from semifinalist to finalist from another CC thread [grin]. It makes me glad to be a participant on CC and proud to be a grandson of a Carleton grad. Thanks for sharing the info. </p>
<p>P.S. The Carleton timetable implies taking the SAT after the PSAT. Too bad that Carleton's word is not official on that point.</p>
