The National Merit Scholarship Corporation has advanced three Wheatley seniors as Finalists in the 2018 National Merit Scholarship Program. The seniors earning this prestigious honor are:

• Aly Kim
• John Li
• Saman Suleman

As Finalists, the students have scored in the top one half of one percent of the more than 1.5 million juniors who entered the program by taking the PSAT last year.

By advancing to Finalist status, these students remain eligible for Merit Scholarship awards worth $34 million that will be offered this spring.

We congratulate the work of our Finalists!
