Alum: I graduated summa cum laude from Vanderbilt University in 2021 with a Bachelor's degree in Neuroscience. I primarily chose to attend Vandy for its academic prowess, and it definitely lived up to that reputation. In retrospect, I loved the majority of my STEM classes, and I find that my education was well-rounded because of my required liberal arts classes. The campus is beautiful, the food is relatively good, and on-campus housing is average. Admittedly, I was excited to live off-campus for my last two years (but beware - living in Nashville is not cheap). Socially, I had a great time at Vandy, especially thanks to the liveliness of Nashville, but sadly not due to Vanderbilt sports - this is not their strong suit. I met lifelong friends at this school! Realistically, however, many students do come from wealthy backgrounds, which can be off-putting at times. Ultimately, while undeniably expensive, Vanderbilt is a great school that will certainly work to your advantage after graduation.... Read 1,342 reviews

Junior: The professors are very kind, and they try their best to make you feel comfortable in the classroom. There will be times where your professors will sit down with you to have coffee, others will invite the entire class for lunch at their house! It gives you a chance to bond and really connect with the professor. A lot of the courses are challenging, but Lipscomb has a lot of great programs that help with those challenging courses. The labs are very interactive, and truly the best experience at Lipscomb. It teaches you material that you'll need later on in your career. Overall, Lipscomb is very worth it!... Read 843 reviews

Freshman: Belmont has been a great experience so far. All of the people have been nothing short of inviting and welcoming. Initially what drew me to Belmont was the music atmosphere and the location, but upon my first time visiting I completely fell in love with the campus. The campus and the University's grounds are absolutely captivating, and I especially love the campus because it makes it feel more like home and less like school. This school is notably known for its music programs, but it has some other amazing programs as well, and the school is constantly working towards improving their programs every year. No matter what you are majoring in, there are great networking opportunities here in Nashville, and there is always something fun to do! A last bonus about this school is the beautiful music that students play in the gazebos at night, it is so incredibly peaceful, and it's proof that so much talent exists here!... Read 1,785 reviews

Freshman: As a freshman, I was very nervous to start college. I actually had 2 classes in person this semester, but I had to drop them due to some medical issues. Online classes are very fun and easy to complete, when the person is organized. When I first went to the campus to sign up for my classes, the staff and professors were very welcoming. I am very relieved that the first semester is almost over!... Read 641 reviews

Freshman: Nashville State has been incredibly helpful and supportive during my first year of college. There's plenty of events and fun activities for us to do on a weekly basis and the teachers are incredible! They'll meet with you any time they can and will help you in every way they know how! It's truly a supportive and amazing environment and I have loved every second of being a part of this school!... Read 568 reviews
