Bishop O’Dowd High School’s Alicia Liu ’18 has been named a finalist in the 63rd annual National Merit Scholarship Program.
The selection of some 7,500 Merit Scholarship winners from the group of more than 15,000 finalists is now in progress. Students will learn of scholarship offers beginning in March.
About 1.6 million juniors in more than 22,000 high schools entered the 2018 National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the 2016 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT), which served as an initial screen of program entrants.
