As members of Vanderbilt University School of Nursing, all students are held to the same values and expectations. The Student Handbook is designed not only to hold students accountable but to also serve as a set of guiding values for our students, faculty, staff, and administrators to ensure that all members of our community are informed about policies, procedures, rights, and privileges. We encourage all students to review the information in the Student Handbook to not only know what is expected of you as members of Vanderbilt University School of Nursing, but also to know your rights. The Student Handbook contains helpful information, guides, and directories that will make navigation of campus life easier. If, after reading through this Handbook, you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact Carolyn Schettler, Senior Administrative Officer in Academic Affairs, by email carolyn.schettler@vanderbilt.edu or by phone 615.343.3241.
Please note: The Student Handbook was last revised October 4, 2024, and is subject to change. The Handbook is posted in its entirety and a pdf copy will be also be posted under the archives section (see the Handbook Table of Contents) within 60 days after the start of the academic year. Please note the online version of the handbook is the official version; therefore, it is the most up to date version should an amendment be made to the handbook.
