NATIONAL MERIT SEMIFINALISTS ANNOUNCED Coppell, Texas – Twenty-nine Coppell High School students were named to this year’s list of National Merit Semifinalists in the 2017 National Merit Scholarship Program. This group was selected from approximately 16,000 Semifinalists in the 62nd annual National Merit Scholarship Program. These academically talented high school seniors have an opportunity to continue in the competition for some 7,500 National Merit Scholarships worth about $33 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 Semifinalists are expected to attain Finalist standing, and about half of the Finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship, earning the Merit Scholar® title.
