<p>Wow! What a record. You have every reason to brag, don’t be so modest.
I don’t think your S should worry about NMF status with all the accolades he’s received. He is sure to receive huge merit aid if he applies to schools that give merit aid. The concern you would have is if he wants to apply to need-based schools, and whether your family would qualify. Those need-based schools don’t give scholarships to NMFs, so it is your call whether to ask him to take the SAT again.</p>
<p>My S is about to return to school, as a junior. Another two years!</p>
