About 7% of the Yale interviewers are not Yale College graduates. However, I would assume these graduates of the graduate or professional schools must feel particularly passionate about their Yale experience to become volunteers. They are as likely as knowledgeable about Yale in general as undergrad graduates, and maybe more so if they are a more recent graduate than an “Old Blue” that you may get. The biggest difference I suspect is that graduate students do not have the full residential college experience or have insights on the social life of undergrads. That being said, I am not sure how accurately a person who graduated 10 or more years ago can answer some of these questions. If you have some unanswered questions, I am sure your interviewer would be happy to redirect you to another alum in her local committee who was a Yale College graduate.
