<p>Do they enter into Merit awards? Looks like my DS is going to pull off straight As
for this semester… will this help him with any College Merit Scholarships? He is submitting various essays and will have interviews Feb. & March.</p>
<p>Depends on the school. Many colleges require the applications for merit awards to be in by November. I don’t know if they wait for fall semester scores or not. Check with the individual schools for clarification. Congratulations to your DS!</p>
<p>Check the websites of the schools your S is considering. Some schools require early apps, but not all of them. U-Del was January 15, for instance.</p>
<p>Some schools the kids applied to took test scores and GPA’s after applications were submitted, some did not.</p>
