Hi everyone! I’m applying to Vanderbilt and my dad really wants me to apply for a merit-based scholarship. (I protested against this as Vanderbilt is already a reach for me and less than 1% of the student body at Vandy is awarded merit scholarships.) Anyway, can anyone tell me about how many of each of the 3 merit scholarships (Cornelius, Ingram, Chancellor’s) are awarded each year and which is the least selective? (don’t worry guys I don’t actually think I’m going to get one but I have to do this to please my dad) Also, are all of these full scholarship or are some partial scholarships?
The three signature ones are full tuition scholarships, but you have some additional merit scholarships that are partial (Curb etc).
Are you planning on applying for 2016? If so, the Ingram scholarship deadline was 12/5 and the Chancellor’s and Cornelius deadlines are 12/15.
