The most commonly asked questions from members and applicants.	We're looking forward to hearing from you!

At The National Honor & Merit Scholars Society, we believe the foremost goal of every student in their pursuit of success should be "Esse Quam Videri" - to be, rather than to seem. Rather than merely appearing as a bright part of America's future, we believe students should actively pursue scholarship and civic responsibility in an effort to gain the wisdom and perspective that leads to success. Students should never quit in their pursuit of academic excellence, and Esse Quam Videri is the embodiment of that belief.
