Have you taken the GRE? An above average GRE goes a long way to making up for below average grades.

Yes! Unfortunately I wouldn't consider my GRE scores above average: 150 on Quantitative and 156 on Verbal, 4 on writing

I've seen lots of people with your type of scores getting into plenty schools, but of course not all of them do. If your interviews and references are great you'd have a decent shot I'd assume. The numbers PTCAS gives for schools are averages, so there are plenty of people below those scores that get in. Are you applying this cycle? If not, you have some time to take some prereqs again and study for the quantitative section again. I'm not sure what the numbers are for Belmont early decision, but there are some schools that give you much better odds of getting in if you apply early decision. If Belmont is one, you might consider that approach if you really love it. Best of luck!

Does anyone know how much the scholarships offered to 12 incoming students is a year? Or when you find out about the scholarship (is it before you have to commit to going, or later)?

They said it wasn't much--around $2,000 a year per scholarship on average (towards a ~$30,000 yearly tuition rate...that could increase beyond that current rate in coming years). Also, I believe you find out after you commit.
