[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my kid hasn’t decided upon a school yet, should he still designate one for round 1 that is due tomorrow? I can’t understand if he should just pick one of the maybes so he doesn’t miss out on the scholarship or if he needs to wait until after he makes a final choice? Thanks for any insight![/quote] As I understand it, he should say undecided. "Tip #3: When indicating a college choice, make sure it is a school you will likely attend. If you are not sure, indicate “undecided” to protect yourself. Once a National Merit Scholarship offer is made by a college, it’s assumed that you will enroll there. Indicating “undecided” gives you the option to change your mind at the last minute. Note the April timeframe to make your final college choice." (This is a guide from Carleton, but intended to be generalizable for students who end up at other schools: https://www.carleton.edu/admissions/apply/afford/merit/)[/quote]
