Medical Scholars + Danforth

<p>Am I allowed to apply for both WUSTL's University Scholars Program in Medicine and its Danforth Scholars Program? Thanks!</p>

<p>Question about the Danforth Scholars Program: Do you need a prior recommendation for this, or can you just apply? </p>

<p>And to answer your question: Yes, as far as I know, you can apply for both. (I am applying for Med Scholars but am interested in Danforth…)</p>

<p>I believe you can apply to both, but I recall you need to be recommended for the Danforth and this recommendation is back in the fall.</p>

<p>You can apply to both.
The University Scholars Program in Medicine is not a merit scholarship program. It is about being admitted to the Medical School as an undergrad and has some benefits associated with the Medical School as an undergrad.</p>

<p>You needed to be recommended for the Danforth Scholarship. From the Wash U web site:
Each summer a call for nominations goes out to high school guidance counselors. Nominations are due by October 15, 2011.</p>
