Definitely a Walking Campus

Tennessee's public transportation system is pretty lacking. There are MTA buses, so if you don't have a car, you do have that option. Vandy also started renting Zip Cars.

The Vandy Vans don't start running until 4pm, so don't expect to catch a ride to class. Everyone (and I mean everyone) walks here. The campus isn't huge, but you may want to get a bike or skateboard if you have classes on the opposite ends of campus (or two different "campuses").

Not Many Options to Get Off-Campus If You Don't Have Your Own Car.

It's not very convenient to get off-campus unless you have your own car. However, even then, you're paying outrageous prices per semester to have a parking spot on campus. The parking spot is far away from where you live normally. It's typically easier to just find a friend to give you rides.

Vandy Vans

Vanderbilt has a great system of Vandy Vans, which make circles around campus with multiple stops. It's a quick and easy way to get from one side of campus to the other without having to walk. This is especially useful when it's dark at night.
