<p>Haven't committed to Yale yet, but my parents want to book a hotel room now for freshmen move in day. Does anyone know the exact date? I've been looking around the admitted students site and can't find it anywhere. Thanks!</p>
<p>If it’s similar to last year, then the freshman residences will probably open on August 26. (Last fall classes started on Wednesday, Sept. 1, and this year they will start on Wednesday, August 31. So I’m assuming the residences will open the Friday before the start of the semester like they did this past year.)</p>

<p>It says August 26. (Assuming you’re not doing any pre-orientation programs)</p>
<p>Any idea about parents weekend? It’s not listed on the calendar link above.</p>
<p>Thanks cherrypancakes</p>
<p>Parents Weekend dates are October 28-30, 2011</p>
