NMSC conducts the National Merit® Scholarship Program, an annual academic competition for recognition and college undergraduate scholarships. Since its founding, NMSC has recognized over 3.3 million students and provided some 432,000 scholarships worth over $1.7 billion. The honors awarded by NMSC to exceptionally able students are viewed as definitive marks of excellence.

AP EXAM REGISTRATION
Dear Students and Parents,
Taking the Advanced Placement exams is an important part of all AP courses. Harmony School Of Advancement desires that all students take AP exams for the AP classes that they are enrolled. Scoring well on an AP exam can often earn students college credit for their high school class, saving a significant amount on tuition.
For the 2020 AP exams, students at Harmony School Of Advancement will be registering online. This registration will take a few minutes and can be completed from any computer with internet access.
