<p>Wow danas, I am really surprised that your D was not a NM Scholar. 
Part of the problem may be that she didn’t follow their weird rules exactly. I had a friend walk me through the process on my son’s app. Of particular importance was assigning grades to all classes, even the self-study ones. </p>
<p>My son was a NM winner and that has been the sole means of why he won’t have debt after college because his was a corporate scholarship worth 6K a year for four years.</p>
<p>OTOH, he applied for several union scholarships (my husband’s a Teamsters member through his job) and he got nary a bit. I have to believe that they prefer public school kids over homeschool kids.</p>
<p>It’s good to know, though, that schools like Princeton regularly admit homeschoolers. My son was also admitted (will not be attending), so I would definitely say the majority of colleges are on the right track as far as homeschoolers.</p>
