Fordham Semifinalist Scholarship

Paying for College

<p>I went to a Fordham presentation the other day, and the admissions director mentioned the NM Semifinalist Scholarship–full tuition! He made it sound as if the scholarship was extremely likely for any NMSF with excellent grades.</p>

<p>I did some reading online about the scholarship but didn’t turn up with much. The few sites that said anything about it were extremely vague. </p>

<p>Can anyone explain the process to me? I’ve already applied EA to Fordham. I’m a NMSF…will I be notified if I qualify for this scholarship in December with my decision? Do I need to fill out the FAFSA? (I hadn’t intended to do so.) </p>

<p>Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.</p>

<p>When my son was a NMF a couple of years ago, Fordham sent him a letter awarding him the scholarship. It sounded like it was automatic.</p>

<p>If I were you, I’d send a letter to the scholarship office and just ask for clarification.</p>

<p>Thanks for the info! </p>

<p>I think I’ll try contacting the scholarship office.</p>
