Nothing at DS’ s high school in Ohio today.
No letter today, Homeschooler in Nevada,@albert69, sorry!
Nothing for us outside of Pittsburgh today.
Still nothing in PA.
Thanks to all the homeschoolers who have been posting to keep us all updated on the status of the NMF notifications. It will be great for the rest of us to know when you all start getting them, so we can start bugging our schools for info.
No mail here
Nothing in NY
Ditto. I do appreciate our Homeschoolers! You have been incredibly helpful throughout this long journey.
DS’s school is not providing any info, either way. Will not even discuss it, though they were very nice about it under the circumstances. I’m pretty sure they get where I’m coming from…
Nothing in the mail today in Colorado! Tomorrow maybe
@goaskdad did you try asking, “Cough once for yes, we have received it?” Can’t believe all of this secrecy.
Might today be the day when our need is satisfied?
My mail just came, where are our home schoolers? Nothing here, but I did get a very late SF letter from UofTX.
Homeschooler–Nothing in Indiana.
I won’t know until my dad brings the mail home later today, sorry. Weird thing about yesterday is that there was no mail of any kind.
@albert69, are you a member of the HS Class of 2015 thread? I considered posting there to ask if anyone had received notice, but a) I can’t find the thread, for whatever reason and b) I’m a parent, so I thought that might be weird of me to post there. NOT that it has stopped me before, because I did post in that thread when we were all trying to learn state cut-off scores last September, and a few of the students kindly responded with information.
But now I can’t find the thread!
@GoAskDad, no, I don’t think I posted on there. I’ll look and see if I can find it.

Long-time homeschooling lurking mom from Ohio. No letter today.
@albert, if you find it and don’t want to post in the thread, please link it here and I will do it. I looked in various places, including “High School Life,” but can’t find it!
Everyone, I also just googled National Merit Finalist February 2015 + my state & school district, and found a dated press release from LAST year that announced all the finalists for our district. It was dated mid-Feb. My guess is that perhaps our school does not inform finalists until shortly before the district releases finalist names. So since everything seems to be running a bit later this year out of NMSC, I fear that we could roll into the 3rd week in February before my DS knows either way. We have already traveled once to a college where DS can only attend if NMF, and we’re getting ready to do the same thing all over again next weekend.
I’m open to any suggestions. “Don’t travel” is an option - yes - but DS has to travel that particular weekend, just due to overall timing, if he wants to see the college.
I need to return to writing lyrics for my Country Song, “Jimmie, Why Ya Keep Me Waitin’?”
@albert69, thank you! I will post in the thread. I’m sure the students will appreciate “a Mom” barging in, but I have lost all dignity at this point, anyway. L-)
@GoAskDad, I vote yes to travel. Think positive.
