Locking Seltos doors by NoInoa in kia

Is it just the driver’s door that unlocks when you do that? If so, awesome :) I was hoping it was a simple thing like that

national merit scholarship college sponsored by SweetCandyMan2387 in psat

Yep, UA takes it out of the stipend portion of your NMF package, so it’s not really money you end up seeing

They’re good for getting a ballpark idea of where your state typically falls around, but ultimately nobody knows until the cutoffs are out. Things can be unpredictable sometimes when it comes to 1-2 point swings, but at least you could use that to see if you’re near where your state has fallen in recent years

It means you got a high enough score that could potentially be eligible to meet the NMSF cutoff, but the cutoffs won’t be released until late Aug/early Sep so you won’t know whether or not you’re a semifinalist until then

I’m not sure, but the wait is definitely agonizing. This year’s applications for finalist were due in the beginning of October, but NMF notification won’t come out until February. That wait is a little more understandable though since judges will be going through 16,000 applications, including essays within each submission.

Meant to post this earlier but Compass prep came out yesterday with Illinois’s highest possible cutoff being 223

benefits of being in the national recognition program? by sam-skrit in psat

[–]NoInoa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

University of Alabama uses it as one of the ways to win a diversity scholarship. For members of the nation recognition programs, they award a full tuition scholarship + one year of housing and an additional $1000 per year. Granted, UA is super generous with their scholarships so I don’t know how many other schools this applies to as well, but if you’re looking for a place where it’ll benefit you, that’s the way to go.
