<p>My son just got a call from the Nat’l Merit people. They needed an answer to a letter sent to my son on Feb 23 asking for #1 favorite school b/c he was being awarded a transferable scholarship. Would not tell me how much.</p>
<p>Big problem - He has been accepted to 2 schools (neither of which he is thrilled about) and waiting on 2 more (it could be 2 weeks til he hears). They want to know by tomorrow at the latest. They say it is transferable. What if he picks a school he doesn’t get in to or a school would have offered him a bigger scholarship if he picked them as #1?</p>
