Tour guide was very sweet and friendly, so fired up about Yale. Others seemed to have a slight snobbish air, but they may just be tired of all the people on tours. I know I would be. [View Full Report]

Honestly, this surprised me. A lot. I was expecting the arrogant/reserved feel I got at Harvard, but not at all. [View Full Report]

They're all so very kind, fun, quirky, vital, curious and still unique that the thought of being able to spend four years with these people warms my heart greatly. [View Full Report]

I went a few days before Thanksgiving; most students were home. However, many that I talked to were friendly and willing to offer their thoughts on their experiences at Yale. [View Full Report]

The students absolutely blew me away. They were what made me apply EA. Everyone was courteous, but they were the friendlist bunch of any school I visited. People held doors, gave great directions and were great to engage in conversation. [View Full Report]
