Good afternoon,
My daughter moved high schools 3 times, and since she has been to three different high schools, she lost her two leadership positions she possessed. How can this be reflected in the application?

Thanks for your question, Sarah. Students are absolutely encouraged to share this kind of context through the application. Each of our application methods gives students an opportunity to include a personal statement separate from the essay. That space can be used to share any relevant information including info about moving schools. At Vanderbilt, your daughter can also get in touch with her Admissions Counselor in order to share this kind of information.
