Agreed with other posters. It’s currently ranked 17 in the nation and it certainly belongs up there. I’ve been able to compare the level of academia here with friends who went to state schools (even highly ranked ones) and Vandy is just out of their league. I breezed through highschool and was ranked #2 in a class of 800 and Vanderbilt humbled me. I can’t help but roll my eyes when I see the status of a friend from back home bragging about a 99 on a chem test or complaining about having to write about a 3 page paper.

And the craziest part is that I go out often than them. “Work hard play hard” is really prominent here. There’s work to be done but still plenty of time to get involved with clubs or Greek life or whatever it is you want to do. It’s a really incredible place.

Anyways PM me if you have any questions about how I ended up at Vandy.
