The mission of National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) is to recognize and honor the academically talented students of the United States. NMSC accomplishes its mission by conducting nationwide academic scholarship programs. The enduring goals of NMSC's scholarship programs are: to promote a wider and deeper respect for learning in general and for exceptionally talented individuals in particular; to shine a spotlight on brilliant students and encourage the pursuit of academic excellence at all levels of education; and to stimulate increased support from individuals and organizations that wish to sponsor scholarships for outstanding scholastic talent.
To conduct nationwide academic competitions for recognition and college undergraduate scholarships.
The National Merit Scholarship Program is an academic competition for recognition and scholarships that began in 1955. High school students enter the National Merit Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) - a test which serves as an initial screen of approximately 1.5 million entrants each year-and by meeting published program entry/participation requirements. For fiscal year 05/31/20 the National Merit Scholarship Program included:Four-Year Renewable Scholarships: 22,581 recipients One-Time Awards: 2,801 recipients
The National Achievement Scholarship Program is an academic competition established in 1964 to provide recognition for outstanding Black American high school students. The last awards in the National Achievement Scholarship Program, which included four-year renewable scholarships, were offered in 2015. Although NMSC ceased conducting this program, there are continuing scholarship obligations for the four-year renewable awards. Black students could enter both the National Achievement Program and the National Merit Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) and meeting other published requirements for participation. A student's standing was determined independently in each program. Black American students could qualify for recognition and be honored as Scholars in both the National Merit Program and the National Achievement Program, but could receive only one monetary award from NMSC. For fiscal year 05/31/20 the National Achievement Scholarship Program included:Four-Year Renewable Scholarships: 2 recipients
