<p>DS has been named a NMF. None of the schools he is interested in offers merit awards for NM.
A company DH works for offers a corporate award , but we have heard that it is only given to about two kids per year. Is there anything DS can do at this point? Who decides if one gets NMSC or corporate award? So confusing...</p>
<p>NMSC will select NM scholars and decide the type of the scholarship. Probably all you can do now is to wait for about 2-5 weeks. NMSC will send Corporate scholarship offers in early March and NM $2500 offers in late March according to its timetable. If your child gets the $2500, he can apply it to the college he will attend.</p>
