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

NO Letter today!

May i ask which state you are in?@Varanasi

I am from PA

Thanks! I’m in Las Vegas. I guess you’ll get the good news first.

I think the letters come from Illinois?

The bad weather is not helping!

So is this our Go-To Thread now? I just want to know which 2015 National Merit thread I should rant & whine on, and which thread to publish my Country Song about this whole process on, and which thread to implore Jimmie the Intern to have pity on me and just email the freakin’ list to my DS’s school on. Stuff like that. Do I post it here now? We need to have one common thread to share our angst on until the Big News arrives, either way. At least I do.

@GoAskDada Well, take your pick - am posting on both - this thread by a NMF (hopefully) or mom2collegekids’ thread on rejection letters. It’s the same people posting on both, I think.

Let’s get off the rejection thread. Bad juju.

Yes, I’m actually worried that I should not have posted here yet…ugh. Hoping I did not jinx my DS! Remember, my DS has that semester C & Notoriously Bad Mail Delivery thing going for him…

Chill out, @GoAskDad. I started this thread and I am not a NMF for sure yet. I highly doubt that any CC post will “jinx” anyone.

No mail from NMSC today!

no NM mail for us today, either!

Called NMSC, the guy said the mails were out yesterday, by this weekend, we’ll receive them.

I’ve been lurking on this thread last few days with knots in my stomach. The wait is torture. Cruel. I need to know now. stomps feet

@studycollege The letters going out (that went out) this week are the letters and the certificates to the principal, not the Finalists themselves. Unless you are home-schooled (ie your parent is your principal), you will not receive anything at home until mid to late NEXT week because letters to Finalists are apparently being mailed on Monday, Feb 9th.

Yes, we are home-schooled for our children. Thanks!

I’m counting on the homeschoolers to sound the alarm for when to begin harassing my school, LOL!

Yes, I am home schooled, and I will post once I hear something.

Anyone gets the Ivy-leagues phone calls for interviewing? Since last week, my son got 4 calls, MIT, Yale, Brown, and today’s was Harvard. Is it selective?
