DescThe National Merit Scholarship Program is an academic competition for recognition and scholarships that began in 1955.

For fiscal year 05/31/17 the National Merit Scholarship Program included:Four-Year Renewable Scholarships: 22,993 recipients One-Time Awards: 2,722 recipientsDesc

DescThe National Achievement Scholarship Program is an academic competition established in 1964 to provide recognition for outstanding Black American high school students. The last awards in the National Achievement Scholarship Program, which included four-year renewable scholarships, were offered in 2015. Although NMSC ceased conducting this program, there are continuing scholarship obligations for the four-year renewable awards. Black students could enter both the National Achievement Program and the National Merit 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. For fiscal year 05/31/17 the National Achievement Scholarship Program included:Four-Year Renewable Scholarships: 235 recipients Deferred One-Time Awards: 3 recipientsDesc

Part V, Line 4:The income from the endowment funds is used to pay for scholarships sponsored by the donors.
Part X, Line 2:NMSC is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state law. The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, NMSC may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also addresses de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods. Management evaluated NMSC's tax positions for all open tax years and has concluded that NMSC had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. Generally, NMSC is no longer subject to income tax examinations by the U.S. federal, state or local tax authorities for years before fiscal year 2014, which is the standard statute of limitations look-back period.

ExplanationIn order to monitor the use of the scholarship grants, NMSC prepares checks that are payable to the selected Scholars or their universities/colleges. These checks are mailed directly to the applicable college or university. NMSC instructs the college or university to verify the Scholar's eligibility for the payment prior to distributing the checks to students or applying them 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. Scholars have an agreement with NMSC that their stipend checks are only to be used for college undergraduate studies and that any unused portion must be returned to NMSC.ExplanationTxt
