Visit Activities:
Admissions Interview: No - There were admissions interviews but we were not there for one and all the summer ones were already booked.
Information Session: Yes - The information session was excellent.
Campus Tour: Yes - We went on two types of tours--a general one and a science one. They were both good but the science guide was great...and a role model for anyone.
Classroom Visit: No - We saw the inside of classrooms but no classes were in session.

Campus Visit Notes for Yale University
Visit Description:
The school is trying to expand the science program which is great. The school has a shopping period each semester where you can sample courses before you commit to them. My daughter likes that feature (which Brown has too) and also the residential colleges where the school is broken down into smaller parts. I think the dorms are probably crowded for my taste especially for freshmen but my daughter, an only child and a very social being, doesn't mind. There are many opportunities for conducting research.
