   If anyone is still wondering - full rides were sent out - I just called Financial Aid and was told they were already emailed. Bummer!

   lanima replied to Lovetennessee's topic in School Programs

   Gotcha! I had seen on an earlier post (sml14 posted that she talked with someone in financial aid) that they would be contacting the recipients before the deposit deadline, so I assumed next week would be the latest. Since only the person who gets it...

   I actually meant the internal scholarships! It says that one prespecialty student and one direct entry (and then there are others that I believe are for 2nd year students) will be awarded full tuition. Would be helpful to know if it was already given...

   Any word on the full scholarships? I believe it's either this week or next that they're supposed to be given out (with the deposit deadline being the following week). I'm not feeling as optimistic as before but am still curious if there's even a chan...

   I agree with sml14 - I think that the full ride would presumably replace the other one, and then you would get the amount in the email your second year (I read someone else's post that they heard the amount for the first year is supposed to be the sa...

   lanima replied to Lovetennessee's topic in School Programs

   That's good to hear! I was wondering about the timing of hearing back (or not) and putting down the deposit. Knowing the goal statement is a factor makes me nervous since I only wrote 1 page DOUBLE spaced (what I was told to do) but obviously I don't...

   Yeah I initially thought there were 3 pre-specialty ones as well, but I was told on the phone there's only on (which makes sense when you read the definitions online). I guess there's no way to tell how competitive the applicant pool was, but my gues...

   Wow - several applicants with 4.0's! I guess that's how you know it's a good program!

   lanima replied to Lovetennessee's topic in School Programs

   sml14, I definitely agree! Kind of a bummer that there's only one full ride for pre-specialty and 3 for 2nd year students (according to their website). The Pre-Specialty year is the most expensive! Do you have any idea on what the typical stats are f...

    lanima replied to Lovetennessee's topic in School Programs

    Thanks so much! I actually ended up calling financial aid after I posted that and was told that this year they're doing away with the essays and will just be choosing people based on their applications? This was news to me from what I've seen people ...

11. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty Accepted Students Fall 2016

    lanima replied to Futuremidwife1991's topic in NP Students

    Does anyone know anything about the full tuition scholarships? I'm looking at VUSN (pre-specialty) and it would be nice to know how many people are considered for those/how many receive one. I understood the information online as only 1 PRE-SPECIALTY...

    lanima replied to FutureNPisMe's topic in School Programs

    This is a great thread! I'm leaning towards Vandy but want to know more about financial aid. Does anyone know anything about the full tuition scholarships? I'm looking at VUSN (pre-specialty) and it would be nice to know how many people are considere...
