<p>Just to clarify, there isn’t any data available anywhere that I’m aware of which shows where NMFs attended college. The data which was linked to in earlier posts shows the number of National Merit **Scholars<a href=“the%20ones%20with%20monetary%20awards”>/b</a> attending various schools, and the comparison is to whether the scholarship was sponsored by the school or not.</p>
<p>This data comes from the NMSC annual report (latest below), available on their website. Look at pages 33-35. For this period, ASU was behind Harvard, Northwestern, Texas, Yale, USC, Washington U, Chicago, Princeton, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Vanderbilt, North Carolina, and Rice. A total of 8511 NM Scholars enrolled at 360 different institutions.</p>
