<p>Just wondering... We took the PSAT back in October. When do we get any confirmation regarding our NMS status, or has that happened already? I'm not sure I got semi-finalist, but I'm sure at least I got commended scholar. Also, when do we hear back regarding corporate scholarships? Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>You will be notified about semi-finalist in September. You fill out an application, write an essay and get a counselor recommendation. You find out finalist status the following February. Then scholarship info comes in March. </p>
<p>This site has a timetable. <a href="http://www.gustavus.edu/admission/experience/merit-timetable.cfm%5B/url%5D">http://www.gustavus.edu/admission/experience/merit-timetable.cfm</a></p>
<p>Our counselor is doing it very weirdly.
Since she will be gone, and we'll have a new counselor for senior year (yeah, this sucks for us, :(), she's giving us the forms ahead of time to complete before junior year ends. That way, the new counselor will be able to write the recs more easily. Don't understand her logic and how she's gonna do it, but that's her choice.</p>
