<p>*But if she puts on the October PSAT that she is a junior, does that mean she is stuck with that for NM purposes? In other words, would she have irrevocably committed to graduating early and then forfeit any NM money if she stays until 2016? *</p>
<p>She can still graduate as an 11th grader and it won’t hurt her NMSF or NMF chances …which would occur during her frosh year of college.</p>
<p>THE PROBLEM IS THIS… When she applies to colleges as a JUNIOR, she won’t be a NMSF or NMF yet. </p>
<p>Bama has dealt with this a couple of times and it is sticky. I don’t know if all colleges will retroactively award NMF money once the NMF is already a full attending frosh.</p>
