NMSF haven’t been named yet. Was your PSAT high enough that you are certain you will make NMSF?

Most, but not all, Presidential Scholars at TU are National Merit Finalists, and not all NMF get the Presidential Scholarship. I have talked to a few NMF who applied but did not get it. Your ECs look good, though, so I’d think you would have a good shot at it. There is also an interview portion, that I believe carries a lot of weight.

I have heard that the people who apply but don’t get it still get offered a full tuition waiver, which is not too shabby at TU.
