****UNOFFICIAL Class of 2015 National Merit Finalist Thread****

Wait, my husband had the mail! Holding the envelope up to the light I think I can read congratulations! (Even thought I tell him it is a service I provide, my son doesn’t like me opening his mail!) NH has received a letter!

@albert69 I won’t know for sure until April, but my favorite is Rice (I think…)

Received a finalist letter from NJ!

Hallelujah for all! AND, thank goodness I can finally get back to my laundry and housekeeping…this thread was so hot and hopping that folding clothes moved to the backburner for a bit.

Tranquility base here - the pigeon has landed . . . . … in southwest michigan.

Yes in Southern California. Came in the mail just now, school says they still haven’t received notice. I have a strong feeling the same news is coming to all of you who haven’t heard yet.

I’ve viewed a number of CC discussions, but none as entertaining and informative as this one! Congratulations to everyone who made NMF, especially @albert69‌, @GoAskDad‌, and others who have been here from the start! I’m a student in WI and still waiting…

Got the letter on Long Island today!!! So proud of my son.

Letter came today!! Hope everyone else gets theirs today or tomorrow since Monday is a holiday. Will definitely make the weekend more enjoyable. Congratulations to those have heard and those who will be hearing soon!

I did not open the mail but was able to read it using desk lamp: DD is a finalist in North Texas! :smile:

Still haven’t heard from school, but S got the NMSC letter in the mail today. It started with the two sweetest sounding words - Dear Finalist…!!!

GC told DD today that she is a Finalist!! suburban Fort Worth, Texas.

Letters came to Houston, TX today. Yay he made Finalist, now we can concentrate on stressing about college admission.

Letter received in suburban Houston, TX today! DD didn’t even mind that I opened her mail :wink: Still haven’t received the “awesome” certificate from the school, but the letter is all the confirmation we need!! At last…

Got my NMF letter today! Now I’m a double finalist! (Merit and Achievement)

Congrats, @MIMominTx and @ProjectGenesis6! That’s cool, ProjectGenesis. What schools are you considering?

Well, I’ve pretty much decided on Drexel; they’re giving me full-tuition. And, they said my A.J. Drexel scholarship will stack on top to cover my remaining costs!

Still no word ! Guidance counselor no help! But encouraged by no rejection letter!

For everyone’s information: my D received her letter from NMC today. We are in Texas.

Finalist letter received today. We’re in Washington state.
