About Yale University

Since its founding in 1701, Yale has been dedicated to expanding and sharing knowledge, inspiring innovation, and preserving cultural and scientific information for future generations.

Yale’s reach is both local and international. It partners with its hometown of New Haven, Connecticut to strengthen the city’s community and economy. And it engages with people and institutions across the globe in the quest to promote cultural understanding, improve the human condition, delve more deeply into the secrets of the universe, and train the next generation of world leaders.

About Yale Summer Session

Yale Summer Session provides academically rigorous and innovative undergraduate programs and courses to Yale and visiting students across platforms and around the world. It also offers students the intellectual challenge they expect from Yale in classrooms that spill out onto the streets of the world. First-hand experience with foreign cultures is a basic component of a Yale education: it not only complements the student's academic study of international topics but is also fundamental to the student's own personal development as a global citizen.

Students must take two courses (2 credits) per session in order to be considered as full-time study. For details, please refer to their website.
