Congratulations to Jeevan Poulose – 2025 National Merit Finalist!
University Heights Academy proudly celebrates Jeevan Poulose for being named a 2025 National Merit Finalist! This prestigious recognition places Jeevan among the top high school students in the nation, a testament to his exceptional academic achievement, dedication, and hard work.
The National Merit Scholarship Program is an academic competition that begins with over 1.3 million nationwide students who take the PSAT/NMSQT. Only about 16,000 students qualify as Semifinalists, and after a rigorous application process—including academic records, leadership roles, community involvement, and a personal essay—around 15,000 advance to Finalist status. This distinction opens the door to potential scholarships from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, colleges, and corporations nationwide.
Jeevan, we are incredibly proud of your hard work and all that you have accomplished. Your dedication to excellence exemplifies what it means to be a Blazer and we can't wait to see all that you achieve next!
