DescThe National Achievement Scholarship Program is an academic competition established in 1964 to provide recognition for outstanding Black American high school students. Black students could enter both the National Achievement Scholarship Program and the National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) and meeting other published requirements for participation. A student's standing was determined independently in each program. Black American students could qualify for recognition and be honored as Scholars in both the National Merit Program and the National Achievement Program, but could receive only one monetary award from NMSC. The last awards in the National Achievement Scholarship Program, which included four-year renewable scholarships, were offered in 2015 and NMSC forged a relationship with the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) to carry on the name and legacy of the National Achievement Scholarship Program. In 2015, NMSC contributed $5 million to UNCF to endow the Achievement Capstone Program underwritten by the National Achievement Scholarship Program to honor and award financial assistance to high achieving, underrepresented college graduates. In June 2021, after all remaining scholarship obligations were satisfied for the National Achievement Scholarship Program, NMSC made an additional grant of nearly $2.1 million to UNCF for the Achievement Capstone Program.Desc

ExplanationIn order to monitor the use of the scholarship grants, NMSC prepares a check that is payable to each selected Scholar or his/her college/university. NMSC mails these checks directly to the applicable college or university and instructs the institution to verify the Scholar's eligibility for the payment prior to distributing the check to the student or applying it to the Scholar's university account. If the student is ineligible for the payment, NMSC asks the college or university to either send the check back to NMSC or to provide NMSC with a refund if the check has already been deposited by the institution. Each Scholar has an agreement with NMSC that his/her stipend check is only to be used for college undergraduate studies and that any unused portion must be returned to NMSC.ExplanationTxt
