Green Mountain Scholarship

• Green Mountain Scholarships are awarded to out-of-state residents who have exemplary academic records and who meet at least one of the following criteria:
• Have advanced to finalist� status within the National Merit Corporation's annual National Merit Scholarship competition. To be eligible for the Green Mountain Scholarship, finalists for the National Merit Scholarship must declare UVM as their college of choice. For information on how to declare or change a college of choice, please view the FAQs on the National Merit Corporation's website.
• Have advanced to a semi-finalist status within the National Merit Corporation's annual National Achievement Scholarship competition. To ensure awarding of the Green Mountain Scholarship, semi-finalists for the National Achievement Scholarship should indicate this recognition on UVM's application for admission, and provide UVM with documentation of "semi-finalist" status.
• Have been selected as a National Hispanic Scholar through College Board's National Hispanic Recognition Program. UVM receives a list of National Hispanic Scholars from College Board. National Hispanic Scholars should also indicate this recognition on UVM's application for admission to ensure awarding of the Green Mountain Scholarship.
