<p>I'm trying to decide whether I want to apply to Yale or not, but first I'd like to know what kind of weather it's like year round over there.</p>
<p>I have a medical condition that gets worse with the cold (And now you're saying "then don't apply!") but I still would like to know how bad it is. Ironically I used to live in New York (but thought nothing of it seeing that I was only seven years old), but now I live in Texas...</p>
<p>So how would you say the cold is during the winters? Is it cold for most of the school year? Have you gotten used to it?...Does it affect your mood sometimes?...Thanks!</p>
<p>I also have a medical condition that gets worse in the cold (Raynaud’s). I’ve lived in New England my whole life and I go to Harvard now. Unless it’s life-threatening, I’d say just deal with it if you really want to go to Yale. You can contact the disabilities office and see if they can accommodate you. For housing I could only be placed where there are shuttles. I don’t know if Yale has any, but you could be put closest to academic buildings if possible. </p>
<p>I hate the cold and the heat. It’s cold from November to march but some people from out of the area might say it’s cold in September.</p>
<p>Thank you!
I feel that while it would be nice to go to Yale, I simply wouldn’t enjoy it and adjust won’t be so easy…Plus I don’t want to get sick the first few weeks of school haha.</p>
<p>Its good to know there’s someone like me (I also have rheumatic condition)</p>
<p>There are shuttles but I’m not sure that they would necessarily be a great solution; I think people tend to use them more to get to far flung points like the train station. They do have an app that tells you where they are so I guess you could avoid standing outside. The campus is <em>relatively</em> compact unless you are a STEM major. Certainly there’s a good bit of walking to be done by most people. It is rather cold in the winter, but not midwest cold. I would say that except for very rare times, the coldest you would have to deal with is the 20s. That would be for, generally speaking, the months of December, January, and February.</p>
