<p>Thanks everyone. Just called WUSTL and due date to designate as #1 choice with NMSF is mid-April. The reason I thought it was March,1 was because of this specific Ohio state cholarship ( and we are not doing that, thanks OSU but no thanks):
Distinguished Scholarship for National Merit, Achievement, and Hispanic Scholars<br>
Award amount
Half in-state tuition ($4,863 for 2010–11); includes the value of the National Merit/Achievement Scholarship </p>
<p>Criteria </p>
<p>•National Merit Finalists who rank in the top 10 percent of their graduating classes, and who designate to the National Merit Corporation by March 1, 2011, that Ohio State is their first-choice institution, are given priority consideration for this award.</p>
