The guide was an awesome guy with a lot to tell and just a genuine love of Vandy. [View Full Report]

It was late morning, but there were not really that many students out. Several students enthusiastically asked us if they could answer any questions, etc, while others just looked at us weirdly. [View Full Report]

She was very friendly, but not someone I'd want to be my best friend. My son couldn't relate, and he puts a lot of stock in the tour guides to represent the school. [View Full Report]

The student tour guides seemed a little off. Nice people, who knew a lot about the school-- but not the kind I want to be around for four years. [View Full Report]

Good. I listened to a student panel that was very energetic, funny, and informative. Also, several students smiled as our tour group walked past. Everyone is very comfortable here. [View Full Report]

As it was a Saturday morning we didn't see many students, but most seemed interested in our tour and smiled. Others ignored the group. [View Full Report]

Southern hospitality. What else can you expect? Even the people from other parts of the country (the majority of students now) fell into that groove of being outgoing and friendly towards us. [View Full Report]

We were there on the Friday and Saturday when the b-ball team was playing in the NCAA against G-town. Everyone was pretty revved up. [View Full Report]

I asked a number of students just to talk about Vanderbilt and why they liked it. I had a conversation with them for almost 45 minutes -- it was amazing. Students were great. [View Full Report]

Middle of the summer. Blistering day. Everyone saying hello, smiling, generosity the rule rather than exception. It's a dream. [View Full Report]

Coming out of hotel (Marriott on campus) the first morning, we got lost and a male student immediately came over to help us find our way. Great first impression of students at Vanderbilt! [View Full Report]

Because it was summer, there were very few students on campus. However, the ones I did see seemed happy and friendly to help out a fellow peer. [View Full Report]

If you want to even give the Ivies a real shot, visit them first. Do it the other way around and you'll feel miserable during the Northeast visits. People are almost TOO nice. [View Full Report]

Everyone in Nashville will want to hear your life story. If you like impersonable, this is not your city. If you like to meet others, check it out! [View Full Report]
