Testing Requirements

All applicants must submit the results of the SAT-I or the ACT. Vanderbilt requires a writing test, so students taking only the ACT must take the optional writing test. Vanderbilt recommends that applicants submit scores on two SAT-II Subject Tests and requires students who enroll to submit these scores prior to beginning coursework in the fall. Enrolling students should submit results from the following Subject Tests: Mathematics I, IC, or IIC; and, if planning to continue study in a foreign language, the appropriate foreign language exam. Students may also take these exams on campus during summer academic orientation.

Students whose native language is not English must take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), in addition to the SAT-I or ACT.

For students applying under the Regular Decision Plan, the preferred last dates to take the SAT-I or ACT are the December test dates. The Educational Testing Service (ETS) code for Vanderbilt is 1871; the ACT code, 4036.
