Should I apply to these? I’m not sure if schools require you to write anything in order to be considered. I believe that Vanderbilt does but I don’t know much else. What exactly am I doing by saying yes to being considered? Do I have ti write essays? Because if so I don’t have the time to do so.
For each of the three signature merit scholarships at Vanderbilt, you have to fill out a separate application. You receive an email after submitting the common app with a link to your myappVU portal, which is where you can access the applications. As for whether or not applying for merit scholarships is worth it, I’d say apply for any scholarships you have even a small chance for unless you’re very wealthy or simply out of time.
I’m definitely out of time for the Vanderbilt ones, but for anything else I’m guessing I should be fine. Thanks
