Florida Poly National Merit Finalist Scholarship
As a young University, we are not yet able to participate in the National Merit Scholars Corporation’s program. However, we want to recognize our National Merit Finalists with an additional scholarship for their high achievements. Beginning with the fall 2024 class, FL Poly will be awarding up to six National Merit Finalists an additional $500 scholarship stacked on top of their current scholarship offer. If you are a National Merit Scholar Finalist, please email financialaid@floridapoly.edu with your notification from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation by March 1st, along with documentation showing you have selected Florida Polytechnic University as your first choice school with the National Merit Scholarship Corporation.
