National Merit Program Recognizes US Students

The National Merit Scholarship Corporation has named eight US seniors as Semifinalists and nine US seniors as Commended Students in the 2023 National Merit Scholarship Program. These students qualified for this recognition based on their 2021 Preliminary SAT/ National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. 

The nationwide group of Semifinalists represents less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors. The Semifinalists will move forward through the National Merit program by completing an application that includes their academic record, community activities, and demonstrated leadership abilities. Finalists will be announced in February, and National Merit Scholars are awarded in the spring.
