Immersive experiences and the creation of final culminating projects can sometimes cost money. Experiences and projects can also be funded to give students the freedom to focus on their project without seeking outside funding or work. A variety of funding options are available to support many immersive experiences and final culminating projects. The chart below is a comprehensive list of options provided by Vanderbilt University. Students can meet with an adviser in the Office of Experiential Learning and Immersion Vanderbilt to discuss which funds may be right for them.
