<p>None of my reach schools offer scholarship for NMF. It makes logical sense to tailor my activities and essay to corporate scholarships or the scholarship offered by NMSC ($2500).</p>
<p>Is it true that you will have the highest chance for a scholarship/ get the most money from the corporation that your parents work for? </p>
<p>Also, what tips are there for getting the scholarship for corporations or the NMSC scholarship of $2500? </p>
<p>Can someone tell me a guideline of what they wrote/ how much money they got?</p>
<p>there is a PDF file somewhere with NMS that lists which company gives out how many, if the company your parents work for gives to all, then I think that is what you will get unless you get college sponsored scholarship. Check with company how much it gives out. Call NMS when you cannot find answers.</p>

<p>Not really. </p>
<p>Nearly ALL corporate scholarships are awarded to the children of employees of the corp. So, if your parents don’t work for one, then you won’t get one. The exceptions are a tiny number who are awarded for certain unique majors. </p>
<p>As for the one time $2500 NMCorp scholarship…I could be wrong, but I think those are offered by strength of SAT score…not strength of essay. The students I know who got the $2500 had high SAT scores.</p>
<p>None of my reach schools offer scholarship for NMF.</p>
<p>So…apply to a safety school that offers a big NMF scholarship and name that as #1… Then that school can be your financial safety school.</p>
