We are proud to announce that Cory Lai ’26 has been named a Semifinalist in the 2026 National Merit Scholarship Program! Cory is one of only 16,000 students nationwide, representing less than one percent of high school seniors, to earn this honor and will continue competing for a National Merit Scholarship.

Selected from a pool of more than 1.3 million entrants for outstanding performance on the PSAT/NMSQT, Corey now advances to the next stage of the competition, with the opportunity to earn one of nearly 7,000 scholarships totaling more than $26 million.

We are incredibly proud of Cory for this remarkable accomplishment and wish him the best of luck as he continues his journey.
