<p>Is there any parent or student that knows “the national society of high school schoars”? They have a one-week summer program. Is it worth to attend? Is it helpful for college admission?</p>
<p>Not helpful at all for college admissions. Sorry.</p>
<p>Do a search - there have been many, many threads about National Society of High School Scholars. In a nutshell, they buy names for mailing lists and they are not prestigious.</p>
<p>It’s a scam. They rely on people confusing them with NHS and don’t help at all for college admissions.</p>
<p>Scam, scam, scam!</p>
<p>Hmmm, this one looks different than the pay-for-your-name-in-a-book places. I actually remember getting something from this one for my Ds but we didn’t do anything with it.</p>

<p>Regardless, I don’t see how it’d help with college admissions. If their only criteria is a certain GPA, the colleges already know the GPA of the student.</p>
<p>While it looks different than those pay-and-get-into-a-book-to-show-Grandmother places, it is not.</p>
<p>Thank you so much for your helpful information!</p>
<p>I think it is a scam.</p>
<p>They do have a web site you can find it here. Although my son doesn’t have a 3.5 gpa and he received an invitation</p>

<p>“…to receive an invitation from Mr. Nobel.”</p>
<pre><code>Mr. Nobel!!! C’mon! Re read the meta thread…oh wait, we can’t.

<p>Mr Nobel!! That is hilarious! Do the students identified as great writers receive an invitation from Mr. Pulitzer?</p>
