<p>Hawkings (or anyone else):</p>
<p>I listed USC as my first choice, and NM received the form on Friday, May 4th. They told me that they will let USC know on June 1st. That said, I have also accepted the tradition Presidential Scholarship that USC offered me.</p>
<p>I received a letter today from NM Corp telling me that I not a NM Scholars–just a finalist. The letter makes it sound like the NM Scholarships, include the college-sponsored ones, are only for NM Scholars, not Finalists. </p>
<p>To clarify, does this mean that I will not receive the $1000/year scholarship from NM (or USC?) Is the letter from NM Corp misleading, or have I been misunderstanding the situation?</p>
