Congratulations to Lucien Mallett, Semifinalist in the 2018 National Merit Scholarship

Program. This academically talented high school senior has an opportunity to continue in the

competition for some 7,500 National Merit Scholarships worth more than $31 million that will

be offered next spring. To be considered for a Merit Scholarship award, Semifinalists must fulfill

several requirements to advance to the Finalist level of the competition. About 90 percent of

the Finalists are expected to attain Finalist standing, and about half of the finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship, earning the Merit Scholar title.
