So I see that these new residential colleges are now operational, but I don’t see any info on the Vanderbilt website about getting into one of these two buildings. Do you have to do a specific application, or is it done through the housing lottery with all the other dorms except McTyeire, McGill and Mayfield Lodge? Wondering how I can maximize my chances of living there for my soph junior and senior years.
Thanks!!
It’s pretty much just like the other dorms. You submit an application and it’s a lottery. They take like 200 rising sophomores then a couple of upperclassmen to fill any spaces for upperclassmen who left. There’s nothing you can really do to alter your chances. Luckily for you, the new Vandy Barnard will be open your junior year so that will be another option, probably with the same selection system.
@fdgjfg Thank you so much, as always!! You’re advice is sincerely appreciated. Hopefully the odds will be ever in my favor.
