Immunization Requirements
ASAP
Review the immunizations that you are required to receive before arriving on campus. Please follow the New Student Checklist for Immunization and TB Compliance for completing a Tuberculosis screening survey, submitting acceptable immunization forms, and uploading your documents to the secure Vanderbilt Student Health portal. You will not be able to register for classes until your immunization and tuberculosis documents have been received, reviewed, and approved for compliance by Student Health.

Reasonable Housing Accommodation Requests
June 1
If you are seeking accessible housing accommodations due to a physical, psychological, or other disability-related limitation, contact Student Access prior to June 1. Review the information regarding reasonable accommodations and documentation guidelines. Following a decision that a housing accommodation is needed for access, Student Access will notify Housing and Residential Experience (HRE). The HRE team will make every effort to find an appropriate and reasonable assignment as recommended by Student Access.

Roommate Requests
June 15
Vanderbilt matches first-year roommates with consideration of their responses to a short list of questions included on the first-year housing application. However, first-year students are permitted to submit roommate requests. Each student in the pair must request the other in order for the request to be considered. Please note that we cannot guarantee that roommate requests will be honored.

Log into Your Enrollment Services (YES) Portal to check your progress on several of the critical tasks and input your emergency contact information. Note it takes up to four days for changes in YES to appear within the portal.

First View Summer Program:
The student leaders of FirstVU and the Office of Undergraduate Education offer the First View Summer Program, a 2-week online transition program dedicated to launching success at Vanderbilt. Each First View session focuses on college readiness, and is designed to help you excel personally, socially, professionally, and academically. Each session includes perspectives from FirstVU, a student organization dedicated to the success of first-generation college students (i.e., those whose in-home parents/guardians attended a 2-year higher education institution or who have a high school education or less.)
The First View schedule includes eight 2-hour virtual sessions. The program will culminate with an ice cream social on Move-In Day (Sat, August 16), as part of the warm welcome you will receive once you arrive on campus.
Online session dates: May 27-30 and June 2-5 from 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. CT.
Email FirstView@vanderbilt.edu by May 19 to express interest in participating in First View.
