(Batesville, Ind.) - Two Batesville High School students are recipients of National Merit Scholarships.

The National Merit Scholarship Corporation says 4,000 additional scholarships sponsored by colleges will be announced in July.
According to the corporation, to compete for Merit Scholarship awards, semifinalists first had to advance to the Finalist level of the competition by fulfilling additional requirements. Each semifinalist was asked to submit a detailed scholarship application, which included writing an essay and providing information about extracurricular activities, awards, and leadership positions. Semifinalists also had to have an outstanding academic record, be endorsed and recommended by a high school official, and earn SAT scores that confirmed the qualifying test performance.
