National Merit

<p>The UChicago website says that it has National Merit scholarships, but it doesn't say how much money they give.</p>

<p>Can anyone clarify this for me?</p>

<p>1000 or 2000 a year, depending on financial need. I emailed admissions a few months ago.</p>

<p>You have to declare Chicago as your first choice school though...</p>

<p>...pretty standard.</p>

<p>Well it's worth it since, and please correct me if I'm wrong, none of the Ivies give merit money for NM Finalists.</p>
