Junior, Joseph Lahmann, has recently been recognized by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation as one of the top performers on the 2017 Preliminary SAT /National Merit Scholarsip Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT), and met the requirements to enter the 2019 National Merit Scholarship Program.
From approximately 1.6 million program entrants, Joseph is in the top 50,000 highest-scoring participants who will be recognized in the fall. From the 50,000 high scorers nationwide, about 16,000 will be named National Merit Program Semifinalists, representing the top scorers in each state, and the other 34,000 students will be commended for their performances on the PSAT/NMSQT. Semifinalists and commended students in the 2019 National Merit Scholarship Program will learn of their standing in September 2018.
Semifinalists will be the only students who will have an opportunity to continue to the competition for about 7,500 Merit Scholarship awards to be offered in 2019. Wish Joseph all the best in this pursuit of a fully funded college education!
