Eight Holland Hall seniors have qualified as National Merit Semifinalists in the 2011 National Merit Scholarship Program: Nahrie Chung, Jennifer Carmichael, Jennifer Moffett, Pauline (Farley) White, Harrison Evert, William Harrison, Peter Jones and Michael Winkler. More than 1.5 million high school juniors nationwide took the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) in October 2010. Of this number, the top one half of one percent qualify to become semifinalists. Approximately 15,000 Semifinalists are expected to advance to the Finalist level and it is from this group that all National Merit Scholarship winners will be chosen.
