National Merit Scholarship Award Winner: Austin Zhang
Mr. Austin Zhang has been named a 2023 National Merit Scholarship Award winner. Among all students who entered the 2023 National Merit Scholarship Program, only about 16,000 were named Semifinalists. They were designated on a state representational basis, in proportion to each state’s percentage of the national total of graduating high school seniors. In order to advance in the competition and be considered for a Merit Scholarship award, a Semifinalist had to become a Finalist by fulfilling several requirements that included submitting a detailed scholarship application and presenting a record of very high academic performance. All winners of about 7,250 National Merit Scholarships are being chosen from the group of more than 15,000 distinguished Finalists.
