However i do see in state students disappointed about this every year in the pitt threads. Creating a thread for the class of 2025 Timeline for the 2025 national merit scholarship competition Does sending fafsa and css profile hurt my merit scholarship chances Or is it better to send it either way Is the merit scholarship evaluation done separately irrespective of css and fafsa profile information.
Just wanted to create a discussion thread for the class of 2026 national merit scholarship program I’m aware that it is a bit early in the game, but as the last round of psat scores will be released next week, i think it would be smart to have a head start! This is a decrease of about 15k per year right now (previously half tuition) Because the amount is now a flat rate, it will also become less valuable as tuition increases (the scholarship used to scale with tuition) Appears to have been updated december 19th 34,952/year + 3k/year (university scholarship) it’s unclear whether the 3k university.
I thought that i would create a discussion thread for the class of 2027 Although nmfs will not be named for over a year, i wanted to start a thread since the first few rounds of psat scores have been released! Both my kids’ college counselors sometimes suggest there are schools that require you to fill out the fafsa and/or css to be eligible for merit aid We did it for my son, even though none of the schools he was applying to seemed to require it, and it confirmed we would not qualify for financial aid Now we’re going through process for the second kid I wondered from the wisdom here if.
I’m a high school senior looking for schools that would offer me merit aid I’m interested in a liberal arts school, preferably in the northeast I loved smith and williams, but neither offers substantial (if any) merit based aid What are some schools with similar vibes and strong academic programs that also offer a decent percentage of students merit aid For reference, i’ve got a 4. My senior was offered a total of $61,580 in merit per year after the may 1st deadline
