Two Dominican Seniors Named Commended Students in the 2025 National Merit® Scholarship Program

 

St. Mary’s Dominican High School seniors Diana Nguyen and Kavya Paramesh have been named Commended Students in the 2025 National Merit® Scholarship Program. They are among the estimated 34,000 Commended Students throughout the nation that are being recognized for their exceptional academic promise. They are named on the basis of a nationally applied Selection Index qualifying score that may vary from year to year.

In recognition of their outstanding ability and potential for academic success in college, NMSC will honor these students by sending Letters of Commendation to them through their high schools. Although Commended Students will not continue in the competition for National Merit Scholarships, some may be candidates for Special Scholarships offered by corporate sponsors.
