Having just submitted my application for consideration of admission to Vanderbilt, I was clicking around the site and realized that I also need to submit the merit-based scholarship applications by tomorrow! I am grateful it can be done online, and wonder why one must request merit scholarship consideration without knowing whether admission will be granted to the applicant. Does it play a role in the Admissions decision in some way? Thanks.

Merit scholarships are awarded in advance of admission. Therefore, if you receive a merit scholarship you will learn of your admit status and scholarship in March rather than having to wait until April.
