    If you were already admitted ED do you automatically get an invite to Mosaic weekend?

    My daughter received her invitation packet yesterday. The enclosed materials says that they have to arrive in Nashville by noon on Thursday, March 12. We live in Los Angeles and the earliest flight to arrive in Nashville is at 1:39PM. Does Vandy make special arrangements for invitees from California or the west coast for that matter?

    Joey,

    That still should be okay. We’ve helped make arrangements for students to arrive late due to flights before. Your daughter might miss some of the opening activities, but she would be there for the major aspects of the program (namely the host matching part – all visiting MOSAIC students are paired up with a current VU student host). Just get in touch with our office and let us know what your travel arrangements are looking like.

    Congratulations to your daughter, hope we see her in Nashville in March.

    Joey, I’m also attending Mosaic and flying in from Los Angeles. I’m arriving a day early so I’m finding a hotel to stay at for 1 night before actually going on campus.

    I am having trouble getting to Vanderbilt for the weekend. I have already mailed in my forms along with a travel re-imbursement but I can not find a ticket for transportation, neither through plane or bus, that I can afford, this is already discounting the 100 re-imbursement. Is there a way I can find other Mosaic scholars in my area, who if driving by car would not mind car-pooling and sharing gas money so that both Vandy and mysely and themselves save money?

    Papiya,

    Yes, transportation from the Nashville Airport to Vanderbilt will be provided on Thursday, 3/12 for MOSAIC participants. VU Admissions staff will be available in the baggage claim area at the airport from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM to shuttle students to campus. If you will be arriving after 1 PM, please notify our office so we can arrange transportation.
