The School for Science and Math at Vanderbilt is a joint venture between Metro Nashville Public Schools and Vanderbilt University. In addition to these partners, the SSMV relies on the generosity of foundations and individuals to carry out its commitments to high school education and research.

This unique program is limited to 26 students per grade, and only those attending an MNPS school are eligible. To ensure every qualified student who is chosen can participate, there is no charge for the program.

Donors to The School for Science and Math at Vanderbilt are essential partners in sustaining and strengthening our mission.
