Needless to say, I’m really excited, especially due to the scholarship which now brings NU into a much more reasonable price range for my family.
@oreomollykona Do you have list colleges for NHRP? Maybe she still needs to list NEU as her choice school? I know for NMSF you need to list top college and then they adjust the scholarship. That said, their website does say UP TO $30k (or $33k this year?) for national merit awards. You can always call FA in the morning for clarity. Congrats to your D!

@california01 I only had my common app essay and I’m quite proud of it, I wrote about something I love and how it has inspired me to do what I want to do. I did quite a few extracurriculars but not an outrageous amount. I mainly stuck to the few I really enjoyed and like to be involved in. I hope this helps! I think you have a good chance! I wish you the best of luck!!
