[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it really that great? I thought pretty easy to get into honestly. [/quote] +1[/quote] This is the issue too. Most people who don't have college aged kids don't view Vanderbilt as being super elite. Very strong? Yes. Ivy level? No. People who are late 40s assume it has about a 30% admission rate because that was the reality when we were seniors. We toured it this summer and I think I had 5 different conversations with friends and coworkers about this. I would say "kid loved Vanderbilt but it's as hard to get into as Harvard" and coworkers (all hiring managers in their fields) would say, "huh, I had no idea." [/quote]
