College Guidance Director Joseph Yung explained, "With regard to the 2012 competition approximately 1.5 million juniors in 22,000 high schools entered the 2012 National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the 2010 PSAT/NMSQT, which served as an initial screen of program entrants. The nationwide pool of Semifinalists, which represents less than one percent (<1%) of the US high school seniors, includes the highest-scoring entrants in each state. Approximately, 16,000 Semifinalists are expected to advance to the Finalist level, and in February they will be notified of this designation. All National Merit Scholarship winners will be selected from this Finalist group. Congratulations to our Seniors who achieved this Semifinalist status!"
Additionally, three Upper School students were named earlier this week as recipients of the 2011-2012 National Hispanic Recognition Program Awards:
