<p>Random question:</p>
<p>Do all of the National Merit finalists who have designated Rice as their choice National Merit school and have been accepted at Rice get the $750-$2000 scholarship that Rice offers for NM?</p>
<p>And for the students who do get NM scholarships from Rice, when do they find out - in their acceptance packet (even if they do ED or ID), or later on once National Merit selects all finalists and starts giving out scholarships?</p>
<p>I was wondering the same thing, thanks for asking that question.</p>
<ol>
<li>Yes, unless they get a scholarship from a company or national merit.
2.Don't know - I'd imagine you'd see it on your tution bill which arrives over the summer, but it might be before (after you committ to attending and finalists have been determined)</li>
</ol>
<p>I dont know about the rest of you, but I was notified that I became a finalist through my school about 2 weeks ago.</p>
<p>Rice-Obsessive, yeah my school notified its finalists a while back as well.</p>
<p>Gamingurux, don't you think it's kind of forward to say "you won't go to rice" since there's always the option of transferring?</p>
<p>Then act like it.</p>
<p>how do you know so much about all of us gamingurux??</p>
<p>well...some of us</p>
<p>Please retract any statements that gamingurux made on this board.
(I was not the person replying above)</p>
<p>OK, thank you.</p>
<p>I think all of us finalists are slowly but surely receiving our notifications now, either via our schools or the USPS. I found out about a week ago that I'm a finalist.</p>
