Financial Information
Financial Aid – Undergraduate
Vanderbilt is committed to accessibility and affordability for all admitted and enrolled students. Grants, scholarships, and work opportunities are available to eligible students who apply for assistance and have demonstrated financial need. Beginning in the fall of 2009, financial aid packages offered to incoming and current undergraduate students no longer included need-based loans. While continuing to meet the full demonstrated need of all eligible students, this expanded aid initiative, Opportunity Vanderbilt, announced in October 2008 provides increased amounts of need-based grants and/or scholarships (gift assistance) to replace need-based loans that would have otherwise been offered to meet a student’s demonstrated financial need.
Demonstrated financial need is the difference between the cost of attending Vanderbilt and the amount that students and their families are expected to contribute toward that cost. The amount of aid to fully meet each student’s demonstrated financial need is determined annually on the basis of current Undergraduate Catalog/ Financial information.
