Hi all, I'm interested in applying to Vanderbilt University's School of Engineering. Does anyone have any information on the acceptance rate specifically for their engineering programs? Trying to figure out how competitive it is. Thanks!
Hi! Vanderbilt University is known for its strong engineering programs. I can't give you an exact acceptance rate specifically for the School of Engineering, as Vanderbilt generally doesn't publish specific acceptance rates by college or program.
However, to give you an idea of the overall competitiveness, Vanderbilt University had an acceptance rates of around 7-10% in recent admissions cycles. Keep in mind that the acceptance rate might be slightly higher or lower for the engineering programs, but it's safe to assume that the School of Engineering is quite competitive as well.
To increase your chances of admission, make sure to have strong grades and coursework in math and science, showcase a passion for engineering through your extracurricular activities, and highlight your interest in the field in your application essays. Best of luck with your application!
