Professional Student Admissions Decision Timeline

Peabody College operates under a rolling admissions process for professional students (master’s and Ed.D.). This means that Graduate Admissions will accept and continue to process applications after both the first (December 31) and second (March 7) priority deadlines. However, please note that students who apply by the earlier priority deadline are considered in the first round of Peabody financial aid award decisions. Students who submit applications by the December 31 first priority deadlines should hear about their admission decision by early February. Those who submit by the March 7 second priority deadline will hear about their admission decision by mid April.

Should you have questions regarding the status of your application, please feel free to contact Peabody Graduate Admissions at peabody.admissions@vanderbilt.edu.  If you have specific questions about your program of interest, please contact the appropriate team leader by content area.
