Yale Young Global Scholars Program 2016 Discussion

Are any of you guys buying the gym membership?

I am @glassflowers

Is there a dress code for classes?

Does anybody know when and where the summer assignments are going to be posted for the seminars?

Woot I just got off the waitlist for ASE. I’d really love to go, but they only gave me $500, and 5k is a bit much for my family to handle. Does anybody know if it’s possible to email them and ask for more aid?

hey guys i just got off the waitlist for ASE!! is there a facebook group or something for us? also @puretruth you can definitely appeal for more aid im not 100% sure how though

@jess1911 Ah yay then I’ll be meeting you (if I end up going haha)! I actually did email them appealing for more aid but they replied saying that their financial packet was limited so no go. I think I might try online fundraising?

Guys I got accepted to BBS!! I can’t wait :slight_smile:

Does anyone know how I can access the reading list for the BBS Session please? Thanks! :slight_smile:

D just off waitlist for SEE!

Congrats! My DD is there now and really enjoying it. Make sure you DD takes a great fan because the residential college is stifling. Also, don’t spend the money on the gym membership.

Why not? Isn’t the gym amazing though?

You don’t need a gym membership to use the gym! Showing them your lanyard and name tag is enough.

AT ALL THE INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY OR WILL APPLY TO FUTURE YYGS SESSIONS,

Please do so! YYGS is such a great experience. It is not just some program for you to add Yale to your resume. The people you meet there will probably be the greatest friends that you could meet. You will be able to meet Yale students and talk to them about issues at Yale and such. The program is really great; you will love it. Again, the other students you may meet at Yale, may be the best people you will encountered. Just apply! Message me if you want more information!

I’m a sophomore and I don’t have any standardized tests. Should I sign up for the ACT or the SAT in December?

Yes

Hi everyone! I was a member of the YYGS PLE 2016 group, and I’d be happy to tell you more about YYGS if you’d like to message me. I loved the experience, and it was probably the best two weeks I’ve ever had in my life. I would highly recommend applying!

wo

For anyone who is applying for the Summer 2017 program, I have created another thread solely for application discussion :slight_smile:
