Vanderbilt Video Essay Questions

You get 3 chances at the video essay, but of course, the question is different for each try. If you are happy with your first response you can submit It and be done with it. Otherwise, you can give it one or two more shots. I believe there is a time limit of about 1 minute or so. The whole thing can be done in 10 minutes

what will you do if you are given an extra hour in a day

I had two, a warm childhood memory and my biggest fear

Tell me about your hometown.

Anybody submitted the Video essay question yet? How was the experience? What kind of questions were asked?


I think it was pretty easy. All the questions are about you so there aren't any wrong answers. I think they are just trying to find out something interesting about you and if you can communicate clearly.
