These awards provide between $500 and $2,000 annually for up to four years of undergraduate study at the institution financing the scholarship.

The NMSC was established in 1955 to honor scholastically talented youth and to encourage academic excellence at all levels of education. This year’s recipients of National Merit college-sponsored scholarships are:

Winston Churchill High School
