Getting a scholarship past finalist status is kind of subjective and dumb. 2/3 of them (scholarships) are from corporate sponsors. Meaning you get them if you’re a finalist and your parent works at a sponsor org. The money is small either way, but you can leverage the finalist title hard at some schools. I, somehow, got a full tuition ride for that stupid test. My school stopped offering that much a year later but I’m sure there are others that still do.
