<p>vamontes - College Board is the organization that sponsors the National Hispanic Recognition Program:</p>

<p>I’m not sure about CA universities, but here in Texas, some of the public universities do offer scholarships to Nat’l Hispanic Scholars. For instance, at UT-Austin, National Hispanic Scholars who are in-state students receive $12,000 over 4 years. NHS who are from out of state receive a waiver of the non-resident portion of tuition (current total value $38,000) plus $4000 over 4 years.</p>

<p>Even though College Board doesn’t award scholarship money with this distinction, being a NHS does translate to merit money at many universities. I’d check the websites and with the admissions office of colleges in which your daughter is interested for more specifics about what those universities can provide your daughter.</p>
<p>And congrats!! :)</p>
