VUNetID and Password

After you pay your deposit, you will receive an email from VU Identity asking you to establish your VUNetID and password, as well as to claim your Vanderbilt email. To access registration and other Vanderbilt systems with restricted access, you must first pass this step. For issues with this process, contact the Office of the University Registrar at 615-322-7701 or university.registrar@vanderbilt.edu. Once you have established your ID and VU email, please use this email as your primary means of communication with VUSN.

YES – Your Enrollment Services

When registration begins (typically July 1 for incoming Fall students and early November for Spring admissions), you will register self-service via the online student portal, called YES, available at https://yes.vanderbilt.edu. After you have established your VUNetID and password, take a moment to log in to YES and familiarize yourself. On your landing page you’ll notice a variety of information. Your 9-digit Commodore ID is your student identification number which is used when interacting with university personnel regarding registration, financial aid, billing, and other enrollment-related concerns.

Please watch this video for instructions.
