Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to get accepted into Vanderbilt University (in Nashville, TN) with a GED. I did not graduate high school and I have always wanted to go to Vanderbilt since I was 13 years old. I am now 25 and going to be trying to get my GED. I would like to go to Vandy but not sure if its worth the effort if its not possible. Am I only able to get into low end and volunteer colleges with a GED?
Any help on this issue is appreciated, Thanks in advance.
April.

you still have a good chance, have you taken your SAT take your SATS and shoot for at least a 1600 in the new SATS out of 2400 and write a killer essay. If you dont get in forst thing you can go to a state university for a year do great and transfer to Vanderbilt the next year. Dont worry follow your dreams nothing worth having is easy! GOOD LUCK!

Ask them if they have ever accepted an applicant with a GED. And Vanderbilt prefers the ACT as opposed to the SAT. So schedule your ACT soon.

prior schooling source is not the point.. the ed. you received is, you just need to be prepared for the entrance exam
