exterior and interior of Yale campus dorms
Yale freshmen live on Old Campus.
  • As a first-year student at Yale, I live on Old Campus with almost all the other freshmen.
  • My suite has four people, and we share a common room and a bathroom.
  • Next year, I'll move to the Saybrook residential college on campus.

When picking where I wanted to go to college, each school's housing system was one of the most important factors. Coming from a small high school and living in a quiet Southern suburb, Yale's residential-college housing system stood out.

As a proud member of Saybrook College at Yale, I've finally settled into living on the famous Old Campus in the beautiful Vanderbilt Hall.
