RISD is proud to celebrate the 38 RISD seniors who have been recognized as National Merit Commended students in the 2027 National Merit Scholarship Program, recognizing their outstanding academic promise.
The National Merit Scholarship Program recognizes high-achieving high school students for their academic accomplishments and provides opportunities for scholarship consideration. The recognition places these students among the nation’s top performers on the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT). Of the students who enter the National Merit Scholarship Program each year, approximately 34,000 are named Commended Students.
