<p>Hello all! I received a letter in the mail today saying I was the recipient of a one-time corporate-sponsored National Merit Scholarship. However, my step-father found another job in January...would I still be eligible to receive the $2500 scholarship? Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>My D also has a corporate award, and the wording, I think in the application we had to file with the employer, stated that the parent had to be employed with the company at time of matriculation. So for our award, I understood that to mean we would lose it if husband left company before D starts school in September.</p>
<p>Call National Merit Scholarship Corporation, they administer the awards and should be able to tell you. I’ve had a couple of questions and they’ve been very helpful.</p>
