Vanderbilt University Top Questions

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about Vanderbilt University?

Jennifer

I brag most about how well the school prepares its students academically. I am now a law student, and even though the course load in law school is certainly more rigorous than undergraduate classes, Vanderbilt certainly prepared me to balance school work with my personal life. The professors at Vanderbilt expected nothing but the best work from their students, and that established a great foundation for my discplined work ethic now in law school. I find the work challenging, but not overwhelming because of the preparation I received at Vanderbilt.

Samuel

The city of Nashville, the friendly people, happy student body, great atmosphere, accessible professors, classes that you WANT to attend.

Elisheva

I brag about the beautiful campus, the relatively small population, the great city around campus, the small class sizes, the facilities, etc.

Zachary

I brag about the work hard, play hard mentality of the campus. We've got a lot of smart kids at Vandy, but most everyone knows how to have fun outside of the classroom. People know when to buckle down and study and when to have that "college experience." And when looking to have a good time, there are just so many things to do, both on and off campus. You will never be bored at Vandy.

Shui

Since I'm from Chicago, my friends are always jealous of Vanderbilt's weather in the winter. It's also a great university, my teachers are awesome, and the food is pretty good. Freshman dorms are nice, and we get to go to all of the football and basketball games for free.

Christi

Vanderbilt is truly diverse in ethnicities, backgrounds, and student interests. After transferring here from Santa Monica College in Los Angeles, I greatly appreciate the wide array of opportunities we as Vanderbilt students are given to get involved in the community and further our academic interests.

The academic to social ratio could not be better. Vanderbilt is a work hard, play hard school. Students there are focused and driven to excel at their studies and when they can relax they love to have fun and enjoy the Nashville scene.
