is there a refrigerator, LAN connection?
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:15
There are no refrigerators provided. Many of the rooms have ethernet connections, but this should not be necessary because of the speed of the Yale wifi network.

What transportation can I take to travel from Yale to Boston airport? Do I need to book any vehicle in advance?
AvatarYale Summer Session

Amtrak is the best way to travel from Yale to Boston - you can also take a bus, but it takes more time

I have a questions about the clothing: Should we bring something more fancy or only casual stuff? How’s the weather like? And isi it really humid in July?
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:18
You can dress however you like - no dress code! It can be quite humid in July sometimes. July in New Haven can be hot sometimes, but mostly is pleasant.

Hi there

I am foreign to USA and I don't have  a US phone number and it seems you need one to complete the form accompanied in the most recent email about course confirmation. And it seems like the fastest time I would get an US phone number is when I land at JFK. how would you recommend I fill out the aforementioned form

What’s the best way to get from Manhattan or Brooklyn to New Heaven on Sunday morning?
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:20
You can take the Metro North train line. The trains run from Harlem 125th station and Grand Central station about every 30 minutes during the day. To get to Harlem 125th or Grand Central you'll need to take the subway, uber, or taxi.

Thanks for answering my previous question :)  Just want to ask about the specifics for the NYC trip on July 6th - what places are we going to visit? Do we get time to explore the city by ourselves?
