There’s another thread about this, with hotel recommendations, in the Parents forum (http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=26296).

My daughter’s experience last year was somewhere in the middle: She liked Bulldog Days but felt she’d gotten more out of a less formal overnight visit in the fall, especially since her hosts had invited her to stay on for an extra night. My husband and I were already familiar with Yale, so (at our daughter’s request) she went alone both times.

I do think Bulldog Days is worthwhile for kids, who get a chance to check out the dorms and prospective future classmates, but for parents who have already visited the campus, I’m not sure this is worth a long detour.
