The art of waiting to name a First Choice School

<p>*I was confused about one point last year when my son was a NMF. Is there a risk in naming school A, that wants to be named by an early date, that they would “award” the student the money and thus take them out of the running for the awards at all their other schools? Wolverine makes a distinction between being “offered” and “awarded” a scholarship, but I was never clear if this was actually under the student’s control.

<p>Are you talking about “other schools” that also require early “naming” dates or schools that award to all NMFs that attend and name by May 1st?</p>

<p>If none of your schools require that you name them by a certain date, then you can be “undecided” til May 1st.</p>
