National Merit Scholarship (Kenyon College)

Kenyon sponsors scholarships for students selected as finalists in the National Merit Scholarship competition, awarding $1,000 per year toward their Kenyon education. The college notes it enrolls a notably high per-capita share of National Merit Scholars. There is no separate scholarship application — recognition flows automatically from National Merit Finalist status once a student is admitted.

Applying
