He committed to play college basketball for Vanderbilt, turning down scholarship offers from California, Marquette and UCLA.

After quiet freshman and sophomore years, Fuller became the starter for Vanderbilt at point guard his junior season. Fuller attributed the change in his status on the team due to an improved work ethic resulting from a desire to honor his father's memory after his death that May. Fuller told USA Today that he was thinking about transferring, unhappy due to his lack of playing time when his sick father changed his mind "My dad told me I'm not a quitter", Fuller said. "He told me I'm going to fight for everything I've got. He said he didn't want to see me leave a good university, especially when you have a skill set to play at a high DI university. You're going to stay and there you're going to play." Starting at point guard junior year, Fuller averaged 8.7 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game. Fuller earned Southeastern Conference Player of the Week for his performance against Xavier during which he scored 25 points including all 12 of Vanderbilt's points in overtime, leading them to a 66–64 Victory.
