<p>hey I found out that I got the $2500 national merit scholarship.
Do I have to let Stanford know about this? Is there anything I have to do to make sure this will be included in my aid package? Or do they take care of it automatically?? (I listed Stanford as my college choice on the NM application..)</p>
<p>Thanks a bunch</p>
<p>As long as they are your first choice school, I'm pretty sure the NMSC informs them.</p>
<p>NMSC informs them. You can deduct 1/3 of the scholarship from your payment each quarter.</p>
<p>I think in June or July they will also send you something to indicate your final final decision</p>
<p>However,speaking from recent experience, it may not be deducted from your Q1 bill, so be sure to check with them: we were told to deduct it by thirds over the first 3 quarters.</p>
