[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, it does help to be a Semifinalist, but these students also tend to have too grades and ECs. Most semifinalists become finalists—and that designation doesn’t happen until the spring, so it really doesn’t affect college admissions (just funding). [/quote] Most SF become finalists but most finalists do not become NM scholars. It’s a long process. Likely those 4 might include it under awards, but they might also have other awards that they would prefer to highlight over their high PSAT score. There is another designation below SF called [b]Commended Scholar. [/b][b]Some might include that on the college app but I doubt it would provide a boost.[/b] SF/F/Scholar status might give a boost or money, depending on the school.[/quote] I doubt it too but when in doubt, include.
