I spent last night at MAFIAoZA’S celebrating a friend’s birthday. If you haven’t had the chance to experience the gloriousness of this casual Italian hot spot, you need to do so! I recommend The Dolan if you’re in the mood for pizza and The Joey if you have a taste for pasta. Anyways, I was...Posted by Kylie on January 17, 2011 in General Information, Nashville, Vanderbilt Blogs, Early Decision at Vanderbilt, vanderbilt, Vanderbilt Admissions, Vanderbilt Admissions Blog, Vanderbilt Admissions Blogs, Vanderbilt Admissions Website, Vanderbilt Balance, Vanderbilt Blogs, Vanderbilt Early Decision, Vanderbilt University, Vanderbilt University Admissions

I just finished a book titled “Don’t Stalk the Admissions Officer” where the advice was average at best, but the humor was timely. Many of my students want me to have a face to put with their name, but in the quest to become real to me, a few students exhibit unreal behavior. Examples include...Posted by Kylie on August 4, 2010 in Advice for Parents, Application Process, Preparing for College, Vanderbilt Blogs, Visiting Vanderbilt, admissions, admissions blog, Vanderbilt Admissions, Vanderbilt Admissions Blog, Vanderbilt Admissions Blogs, Vanderbilt Admissions Website, Vanderbilt Blogs, Vanderbilt Road Shows, Vanderbilt University, Vanderbilt University Admissions
Standing in the reference aisle of Border’s yesterday I found myself both overwhelmed and amused with the plethora of admissions advice displayed on the shelves. One book, in particular, jumped out at me, the subtitle was “What College Admissions Officers Don’t Want You to Know”. As I flipped through the chapters I found absolutely nothing...Posted by Kylie on August 2, 2010 in Admissions Committee, Advice for Parents, Application Process, College Application Guides, College Confidential, Demonstrated Interest, Vanderbilt Blogs, Nashville, vanderbilt, Vanderbilt Admissions, Vanderbilt Admissions Blog, Vanderbilt Admissions Blogs, Vanderbilt Admissions Committee, Vanderbilt Admissions Website, Vanderbilt University, Vanderbilt University Admissions
