These programs allow high school students to commit early to medicine, oftentimes reducing the time and financial burdens typically associated with medical school.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, many students graduate with considerable debt, with more than 71% of med school students graduating with loans. To reduce this financial burden, some schools will offer scholarships to students who qualify for the National Merit Scholarship.<\/p>\n<p>The National Merit Scholarship Program is an annual competition open to all high school students in the United States who meet the program entry requirements. For most participants, they will take the PSAT\/NMSQT in their junior year to qualify for the award in the year following their high school graduation.<\/p>\n<p>To enter the National Merit Program, a student must meet the following criteria:<\/p>\n<p><fbs-ad position=\"inread\" progressive=\"\" ad-id=\"article-0-inread\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\"><\/fbs-ad><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Be enrolled as a high school student (either traditional or homeschooled) and will plan to enter college the year following their high school graduation<\/li>\n<li>Attend high school in the United States, District of Columbia or U.S. commonwealths and territories.

From there, they will be further distinguished as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Commended Students &#8211; <\/strong>34,000 students will qualify as Commended Students. While this means they won\u2019t move forward in the competition for the National Merit Scholarship, they might still be eligible for other scholarships provided by corporate or business sponsors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Semifinalists<\/strong> &#8211; 16,000 students will move forward as Semifinalists, meaning they scored the highest in their state. They will be notified of the next steps through their school.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Finalists <\/strong>&#8211; in February of their senior year, 15,000 students will be notified if they have advanced to the Finalist stage. To be chosen as a National Merit Scholarship recipient, the student must advance to this stage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of the 15,000 students who advance to the finalist stage, a little less than half (7,140) will win one of the three types of National Merit Scholarships:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>National Merit $25,000 Scholarships<\/li>\n<li>Corporate-sponsored scholarships<\/li>\n<li>College-sponsored scholarships<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Direct Medical Programs That Offer College-Sponsored National Merit Scholarships<\/h2>\n<p>Roughly 3,800 National Merit Scholarships will be offered to finalists who plan to attend a sponsoring college or university.
