Probably most of those aren’t. I doubt being an NMF could hurt anything, so if you can still send the scores in, why not do so? For some people, NMF is very important because they go for the large scholarships (like full rides) offered at those schools. I recognize that calling those options “only” other benefits is probably just because you’re not familiar with the program, but please don’t trivialize it - it’s a big deal for many people.
