Going to YALE??? -- HELP!!

Colleges and Universities A-Z Yale University

<p>Hi guys,</p>

<p>I'm having trouble making my final list of colleges this summer. So far, I'm sure that I'll be applying to 5 colleges already. I need to decide about the last 5 colleges I'll ultimately apply to.</p>

<p>I'm planning to major in Political Science, but I want the flexibility to change that major in case I don't want to study PS after all. My stats are strong, so I'm not worried about that right now.</p>

<p>Here are the questions I need answered (anyone can answer; alumni or current student answers would be amazing):</p>

<ol>
<li>Are students taught by professors or TAs or other?</li>
<li>What is student/faculty ratio?</li>
<li>Sequence of courses in majors?</li>
<li>When do you have to declare major?</li>
<li>How hard is it to change major?</li>
<li>Enough majors to transfer into later?</li>
<li>Graduate school placement rates?</li>
<li>Where do those graduates go?</li>
<li>How many students go on to post-graduate study?</li>
<li>Any special relationships w/ post-grad institutions or medical or law schools?</li>
<li>What is the general atmosphere of the school?</li>
<li>Quality of related majors (sociology, economics, etc.)</li>
<li>Overall school quality?</li>
</ol>

<p>If anyone at Columbia is currently studying Political Science, it would be great to know what you think about the program.</p>

<p>I was also wondering if there is any undergrad Journalism/Communications program @ Yale.</p>

<p>Thanks! =)</p>

<p>That’s a lot of questions! Most of these are easily answered by visiting Yale’s website. Will you research a little on your own first and then refine a list of unanswered questions (the deeper ones, like what Yale’s overall atmostphere is) please?</p>

<p>Demiitasse is right. You can’t expect people here to do the legwork you should be doing yourself. In addition to the Yale website (and note that you have to dig into more than just the Prospective Students section) the U.S. Dept. of Ed’s College Navigator website will provide answers to many of your questions.
