As a sponsoring member of the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, Messiah College awards a National Merit Scholarship to all National Merit Finalists who have not been selected to receive another scholarship through the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. The amounts normally range from $500 to $2,000 ($2,000 to $8,000 over four years) depending on documented financial need. These awards are automatically renewable each year. A student may receive this scholarship in addition to any of the other scholarships.
