My campus visit / interview is coming up! On the evening I am spending near campus, I'd like to get a preview of life in New Haven for YSOM students, are there any particular YSOM hangouts?
During your campus visit, you will probably get a current student assigned for some one-on-one time. Depending the day, there's probably something planned. Ask him or her for details for specific happy hours or nightlife activity planned that day so you can come and check it out yourself.
One of the most popular bars include Gryphon's Pub and it is located on campus. (very cool gothic building) It's open Mon to Sat from 8pm to little after midnight. There's a $15 membership fee annually that qualifies you for discounts and other benefits. The pub features pool tables, a big screen TV, several lounges, and nightly drink specials.
One of the coolest things about YSOM is that after finals week, YSOM treats us to free pizza and beer. (among other things) We party up in New Haven, and some of us even schedule an extended/unplanned celebratory trip to NYC that is not completely good for your physical and mental health.....

But regardless....if you are headed to any decent bschool, your social calendar will be filled with craziness that you will soon end up suffering from FEAR OF MISSING OUT.....and yet, you always have crap load of school work....
