Vanderbilt on the Common App or Not? Help!

I've heard a lot of good things about Vanderbilt, and I think it could be a great fit for me. Before I get too excited, can anyone tell me if Vanderbilt is on the Common App, or am I going to need to figure out another application?

Hello there! Vanderbilt University does indeed use the Common Application for their admissions process, so you'll be able to apply to Vanderbilt along with any other colleges on your list that also use the Common App. Just make sure to pay attention to their specific supplement essays or additional requirements—if you want to know more about their essays specifically, you can check out CollegeVine's blog post breaking down each Vanderbilt prompt: https://blog.collegevine.com/how-to-write-the-vanderbilt-university-essays/.

Make sure to leave yourself plenty of time to brainstorm how you want to respond to these essays, and best of luck with your application!
