Stop with the performative virtue signaling.

"Performative"?

Rights have been lost.

How hard is it to get in? Recent reel from one of the college influencer (ivy__) makes it seem like ED this year was brutal at Vandy

The current president of Vandy doing some damage to the brand, I agree. Also admissions is very donor friendly and the word is out.

Probably miserable. Very cliquey atmosphere, overwhelming majority of whites. Depends if your kid is into greek system and drinking. Huge drinking culture. Campus was fairly empty when we visited, it sort of felt like a commuter school but it was the weekend.

What is vandy like for an Asian kid on a Pell grant

Take a look at the student geographic distribution; approximately 10% from Tennessee, 10% international and then there’s a lot of New England and California kids that give it much less of a southern feel

There isn't much to dislike about Vanderbilt. It's a very sold school academically. It definitely leans pre-professional, but it's also a great place to do a deep dive into any subject. Their sports teams took a huge leap in recent years - football, basketball - both men and women - and baseball are all ranked teams, with all the excitement that brings.

The campus is very nice, like a garden in the city. Dorms are nearly all modernized and new. The student population is 50-50, so the social dynamic is healthy. The Greek system attracts less than 25 percent of students. It's there for those who want it, but joining is totally not necessary. Nashville is a fun city for college students.

My sense from doing one of their weekends for prospective students is that Vanderbilt knows exactly what they are doing. It's an ambitious school with a very proactive administration. I can't really think of anything negative to say about it. I guess maybe the rich kid thing, but around 65 percent of students are on financial aid, so it's not overwhelming. It didn't feel like a barbell school either. It felt very cohesive, and the thing that they stressed over and over again, is that they really want the students that really want to be there. They don't want to be anybody's second choice, and I think that feeds into the sense of community that's there.

Doesn't really matter. Neanderthal laws enacted by the state are what matter. Good luck finding an OB/GYN in a few years.

The fact that you have to INVENT problems shows you have no authentic evidence against the state.

TN is among the states telling doctors how to do their jobs. They have criminalized providing an abortion. Why would any well-trained OB/GYN want to work there if in their highly trained medical opinion they think an abortion is necessary (not just because a teenage girl got knocked up but for true medical reasons) and they might end up in jail for it? As usual, Republicans are creating and sensationalizing a problem that very, very rarely exists and legislating around them. I thought you were the party of small government, yet you keep telling us how to live our lives and imposing yourselves on us, like your pathetic masked storm troopers in MN.

A friend's kid goes there. The student population is incredibly wealthy - think USC on steroids. They have a 7 figure household income and their daughter was one of the poors there, for example....spring breaks on private islands, etc.

Gotcha. Unable to think for yourself so use the Fox News catch phrases. Next post will call us "woke". Then tell us we love migrants and want them to kill us all. Then something about transsexual athletes. Then about how everything is Biden's fault. Then if I call you out on Trump being a racist jerk profiting off the presidency you will deflect that too and refuse to say a bad word about Das Fuhrer. You're all the same.

TL/DR: you're not smart enough to have a kid at Vandy so please leave this thread.
