Description

The E.S. Rose Scholarship is open to deserving incoming first-year students based on their academic accomplishment, evidence of involvement in positions of leadership in the school and community, demonstrated financial need, and residency near E.S. Rose Park in the Edgehill neighborhood. Those students who meet the scholarship criteria and whose permanent residence is located within Metro Council districts 17, 19, and parts of 18 will be considered for the award. If no qualified applicants are meeting the residency requirements, students who are graduating seniors at any Metro Nashville Public School and who are enrolled in the free/reduced meal program will then be considered (provided they are admitted to the university and meet the general scholarship criteria) for the E.S. Rose Scholarship. The university will award two (2) full-tuition scholarships each academic year. In every other academic year, one additional half-tuition scholarship will be awarded. To be considered for an E.S. Rose scholarship, prospective freshmen must complete their application for admission to Belmont by our December 1 priority application deadline for merit scholarship consideration. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
