As Tennessee’s largest HBCU, Tennessee State University forms an important cornerstone of Nashville’s prestigious academic community. The robust engineering program has cultivated close ties with organizations such as NASA and General Motors, and the School of Nursing is well known for its exemplary first-time pass rate among students taking licensing exams. Situated on the banks of the Cumberland River, the TSU campus is surrounded on three sides by residential neighborhoods, with a wide selection of apartments, houses, and condos available within convenient walking distance. Downtown Nashville is about three miles away, an easy bike ride anytime (in fact, a Nashville B-cycle rental terminal sits just off campus at Hadley Park). With the Music City at your fingertips, you’ll always have access to a near-endless array of restaurants, bars, nightclubs, museums, parks, and performance venues; Broadway, Music Row, the Gulch, and the District are all within a stone’s throw of the university.
