Undergraduate Admissions

Visit

Whether you’re just beginning your college search or have already been admitted to Vanderbilt, visiting campus will provide you with insights that simply can’t be obtained through word-of-mouth exchanges, viewbooks or websites. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions has designed a variety of campus visit programs to give you plenty of opportunities to get to know us.

Read about these visit opportunities and more below.

  • Daily Information Session and Tour — Gain key insight on admissions topics straight from our counselors and student tour guides, who will give you a personal tour of our beautiful, park-like campus.
  • Black and Gold Program — Held on five different dates early each year, Black and Gold is a program for high school freshman, sophomores and juniors that is designed to help you get started in your college search.
  • 'Dore for a Day — This half-day visit is designed for high school juniors, seniors and admitted students and offers you a chance to shadow a current Vanderbilt student. Alongside your host, you will attend classes and spend time together exploring campus.
  • PreVU — This program is for rising high school seniors only, offering students and their families an in-depth look at Vanderbilt inside and outside the classroom.
  • Organization Visits — For high school groups or organizations comprised of 5 – 85 high school students, these visits operate just like our Daily Information Session and Tour, featuring an overview of Vanderbilt from an admissions counselor and a personal tour of campus from a tour guide.  (Note: Examples of organizations include the YMCA and Boys & Girls Clubs. Please sign-up for a Daily Info Session if you will be visiting with your family.)
