Vanderbilt University Campus

The College provides a liberal-arts-based education that requires the completion of 14 courses. These include courses in Humanities and the Creative Arts, International Cultures, History and Culture of the United States, Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Perspectives, and three writing courses.

Highlands is the second housing quad on campus. Others include Commons, Living-Learning Communities, Residential Halls on Alumni Lawn, Towers, and Branscomb. It is available to upperclassmen and is right across from the rec center. It has rooms of doubles and 4 person suites. It is composed of three buildings, Chaffin, Morgan, and Lewis, and the Mayfield living-learning communities are shown in this video as well!

Commons is one of the housing areas on the Vanderbilt campus. It is only available to first-years, your head of house (professors that live on the second floor of your dorm), and RAs. It has its own dining hall and areas to relax!

I commute to class, which is at Wilson. This is probably the furthest distance you'll ever have to walk to get to class (from Murray to Wilson). I walk from Commons to Stevenson Bridge to Wilson usually. In the video, I talk to Commons but show my commute back to Commons from Wilson instead. Blair students (the music school) may have to walk a lot too! It is a rainy and cold day. The commute is in three parts, so make sure to watch them all to get the full commute experience!

Welcome to Peabody Esplanade! This is the "yard" around the Peabody College, which is the school of Education.

Alumni Lawn is an important destination on campus and will be essential to your college life. It is where you start your life at Vandy through an opening ceremony, and it is also where Commencement takes place! If you wish to attend any club/organization events and big musical events that our school hosts, this is the place it will be. We invite the biggest, popular artists to campus for events such as Rites of Spring. Some artists included Gucci Mane, DNCE, cheatcodes, H.E.R., Goldlink, etc. It is your chance to attend a concert for super cheap!

Most of the English classes are here.

There is a great area to study outside at each upper quad dorm building as well as the Commons center. These areas are super popular when the weather is nice and warm and fill up quickly! If you can, I would recommend studying outside. All areas are comfortable and relatively quiet!
