<p>Is this scholarship application used to review that actual application to the school as well? Or are they handled separately.</p>
<p>Also, I am curious as to how a Regular Decision applicant would apply for this scholarship. When are the scholarship results released? If a RD applicant were to find out in like March/April, would the scholarship results come out after?</p>
<p>The scholarship committee likely has access to your application. However I highly doubt the admission committee has access to your scholarship submission.</p>
<p>The scholarship results are released in late March, just around the time when RD acceptances are released. That is, ED students who are accepted receive a preliminary financial aid package before the scholarship decisions have even been made and will receive a new one if they are awarded a scholarship. RD students receive the scholarship offer with their acceptance letter.</p>
<p>Don’t quote me on this but I’m fairly certain this is the case.</p>
<p>Some obscure scholarships are awarded even later; I received an unexpected scholarship in July and didn’t even apply for any of the large merit scholarships.</p>
<p>The merit scholarship results are usually a bit before the RD decisions, although not that many people post here when they win them. Vanderbilt is very generous re time…you have the full month of April to consider. They count on a certain percentage of yield as it is only natural for some students to choose bigger offers or other universities.</p>
<p>Anyone winning merit at Vandy might also field other offers in April that are attractive. Ingrams used to come to campus for panel interviews and then went home to await their decisions.</p>
<p>I received the Cornelius Vanderbilt scholarship last year - I was emailed my acceptance email on March 9 and was already accepted as a scholarship recipient and student. If you win this scholarship or one of the other two, you will then receive the big RD acceptance package later on in late March/early April.</p>
<p>So when did you hear about the scholarship Apoc? How much earlier than the actual RD decision was released?</p>
<p>Do you remember?</p>
<p>I received my acceptance email for the CV scholarship on March 9, and I received my RD acceptance package later in March (probably around 25-30).</p>
<p>Ahh, that’s nice. Thanks for the info.</p>
<p>What happens when you are accepted ED1, are you still notified in March.</p>
