aerian/machichi/etc, can any of you offer insight as to which day of the week is best to visit? Maybe which day of the week has the most representative class to experience?

Hey guys, applying Round 2, currently work for the US Civil Service. Quick question, how much does Yale take into consideration visiting before application? I've been to Yale's campus (granted not SOM's new building), but have not done an official visit yet. Will attending online sessions and reaching out to current students make-up for this or are they big on visits? Yale SOM is my top choice (along with Tuck) and I want to do all I can to help my candidancy and prove to the adcoms I want to attend; however, with the government shutdown it may be tough to negotiate a visit...Thoughts?

We just finished the first quarter of classes (we're in the middle of exam week!), so I can't speak very knowledgeably about our classes for next quarter. That said here's the schedule: Monday/Wednesday Investor Competitor Tuesday/Thursday Customer Sourcing and Managing Funds Looking at the class titles, I think you'll agree they're all quite representative of Yale's integrated core curriculum. Just don't come on a Friday if you want to sit in on a class with first years. I've also heard through admissions that they're encouraging students to come next semester when the new building is open. We're all in for a treat starting January!

Yeah, their site says: But whatever, they won't look down upon me for visiting before January right? Thanks for the schedule, that was exactly what I was looking for.. M/W sounds more interesting to me Good luck on your exams and enjoy fall break!

ah. got fooled again by the Yale newsletter. They know how to play with my feelings.

Haha! Same here!! Not cool SOM. Not cool

Me too!! Boy they really know how to jump your heart rate at the end of the day, don't they?

They really do! The subject of those e-mails should be "don't panic, just a newsletter".

yeah, my heart definitely skipped a beat when i saw that email lol

Bruce just posted details on what happens to your application once you hit "submit". Hopefully you guys get the golden ticket soon! https://som.yale.edu/director-admissions ... pplication
