Vanderbilt University Freshman Dorms Ranked

Number 5

"living in east was nice! (while dr. meadows was faculty head of house*) the weekly events were fun and the community felt comfortable. the rooms are small, but can be used well! (i didn’t have a roommate so this may be different in doubles/triples) the vibes are kind of sad, so i spent most of my time at libraries/out. go to gillette for laundry!!!! the kitchen was fully stocked, which was nice but also allowed for huge messes. the AC works well! i’d live in east again, east beasts forever <3" - 1 year ago

Number 3

"My review will be a little different because I only lived here for one semester and had a double to myself. Overall, a great quality building. Music room, communal kitchen (it was closed my semester), in-house laundry, seminar room, and common spaces on every floor. I thought my room had an amazing amount of space, but I didn’t have a roommate to share it. The bathroom, despite being communal, was very nice, clean all the time and the shower had great water pressure. It’s also super quiet most of the time. (I lived on floor 5) My only complaint is that it’s so far from anything on campus other than Commons Center and Peabody Library. I took advantage of the road access to get food delivery and lyfts often, and it was nice for when my parents came to pick me up. I believe overall, I was dealt the best hand I could get for my first semester of college." - 4 years ago

Number 2

"Hank House is easily the best on campus and on commons! Being the newest house, Hank is the biggest and has the best community. I lived in a corner room which is arguably the biggest room in Hank and on all of commons. One of the bathrooms had flies in it but it wasn't such a bother and it seemed like an isolated bathroom. Overall, I had such a great time living here and hope that others get to share in that experience. " - 1 year ago

Number 1

"Old building but the rooms were pretty nice. Walk in closets and faux wood floors instead of tile like most commons houses. First two floors have private bathrooms that I hear are nice but the other floors have public bathrooms. Laundry in another building which is not ideal but I loved the location and was overall glad I lived in north" - 4 years ago
