Nashville

nashville skyline

Vanderbilt students tend to bond with Nashville as their temporary home town. The city has become a national nexus for banking, insurance, publishing, medicine, music and education. Its more than 1.3 million residents -- including 43,000 students enrolled in the city's eight colleges and universities -- appreciate such amenities as museums, restaurants and parks.

Vanderbilt's location, in fact, has become an increasingly valuable asset. Downtown Nashville, only a mile and a half from campus, presents options for course-related research and internships, recreation and entertainment, and careers after graduation.

Combining energy and courtesy, historic tradition and urban sophistication, Nashville typifies the best of the New South.
