<p>i recently got my psat results back and scored a 236 (one wrong on math augs;ladkfjdasf).
i think i can make the finalist round with my psat score and good essays, but im not sure about actually getting a scholarship because the selection process for that seems a little random. do any of these colleges offer scholarships for national merit finalists?</p>

<p>No those schools don’t give NMF scholarships. Most of those schools don’t give ANY merit scholarships at all.</p>
<p>You need to visit the NMF scholarship forum here for more info. You seem to be confused about NMF scholarship awards. There are 3 different types. the “random” ones are ONE TIME awards for 2500…so they won’t really help much with paying for college. The college ones aren’t usually random. The corporate ones usually involve being a child of an employee.</p>
