From their website:

Winner Selection

All winners of Merit Scholarship® awards (Merit Scholar® designees) are chosen from the Finalist group, based on their abilities, skills, and accomplishments—without regard to gender, race, ethnic origin, or religious preference.

Merit Scholar® Designees

Beginning in March and continuing to mid-June, NMSC notifies approximately 8,200 Finalists that they have been selected to receive a Merit Scholarship® award. Merit Scholarship awards are of three types:

National Merit $2500 Scholarships
Corporate-sponsored Merit Scholarship Awards
College-sponsored Merit Scholarship Awards

So from their website it looks like all three are considered National Merit Scholars.
