So, I've been thinking a lot about Vanderbilt recently. I've heard it's competitive, but does anyone have real numbers? Any info on the admission rate is appreciated!
Sure, I can help out with that. Vanderbilt University is indeed quite competitive when it comes to admissions. Its acceptance rate for first-year undergraduate applicants during the 2023-2024 application cycle was around 9%. That means about 9 out of every 100 applicants are admitted. However, keep in mind that this number can fluctuate from year to year depending on the applicant pool.
Always remember that such statistics should not discourage you from applying. If you believe your academic profile, extracurricular involvement, and passion align well with Vanderbilt's mission and values, you should definitely consider applying!
