    CAMPUS SITUATION rmr m p l a n g r o u p The Nashville Connection. Belmont University is situated near Nashville’s midtown, within close proximity to the city’s cultural, academic, residential and commercial centers. While the university itself offers students a wide array of m outstanding learning and living resources, the campus’ convenient location extends opportunities for students to interact with a dynamic community and access additional quality resources and services. On the north edge of campus, the historic Belmont Mansion sits atop a hill overlooking the bustling traffic of Wedgewood Avenue, a major gateway to other Nashville activity centers. This avenue provides convenient access to: • Vanderbilt University , a respected private university with an enrollment of nearly 11,000 undergraduate and graduate students; • Vanderbilt Medical Center , a national leader in medical education, research, and patient care; • Music Row , the heart of the country music industry – a midtown collection of major recording label offices and recording studios, including Belmont’s own Ocean Way studios; • Historic residential districts , featuring an array of single- and multi-family homes in safe, friendly neighborhoods; • Hillsboro Village and the 21 st Avenue corridor , a vibrant retail, dining and entertainment district; and • Interstate 65 , a major pathway around, in and out of Nashville. Belmont Boulevard, which forms the west side of campus, also serves another important arterial function, connecting Belmont University to David Lipscomb University, a Christian faith-based liberal arts institution. Between these two growing institutions, students will find commercial resources, personal service providers and multi-family housing, all surrounded by revitalized residential neighborhoods and pedestrian and bicycle pathways.
