Visiting home in NYC

<p>What's it like visiting NYC from Yale? For a number of reasons being able to get home often enough has become somewhat of an increasing priority in my college search. I know its close (maybe like Pton), but I'd like to get enough of a feel to know if it would become a strain to pull it off once maybe twice monthly? Maybe for, say, a weekend, given cost, trip length, and anything else worth considering?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance ...</p>

<p>$14 one way, $28 roundtrip on the Metro North. New Haven to Grand Central in about 90 minutes. Trains leave at least every hour.</p>

<p>it won't be bad the 90 minutes do go by pretty fast, and if you buy it online, it's cheaper than 28 (remember to go during non-peak hrs, which is basically any time not between 6-10am mon-fri)</p>
