And just to clarify, there are some scholarships available for NMSF status but most are for NMF designation. That being said, there are normally about 16,000 students nationwide that achieve NMSF status and 15,000 usually are selected as NMF’s. The 1,000 or so that don’t are usually due to 1) not taking the SAT at all 2) not having an overall academic record indicative of the score (great test taker but underachieves in terms of GPA) or 3) not scoring well enough on the SAT to “affirm” the PSAT score (seems like 2000-ish is the number most folks throw around). Only about 1,500 NMF’s actually get selected for the $2500 one-time scholarship, but personally I’d rather have the $100K plus package from Alabama or the like instead. One man’s opinion…I could be wrong.
