If one of my classes isn't on canvas (human osteology), should I assume that the teacher isn't using canvas and will use a different form of communication? Looking forward to coming to Yale!
Meg Palladino
9:22
Yes, if there is no canvas site, the instructor likely isn't using it.

What's the best way to get from JFK to Yale?  By the way, I am gonna arrive there like one day earlier than the check-in day. Who shall I contact?
AvatarYale Summer Session

Go Airport shuttle is the easiest way https://goairportshuttle.com/

If you are enterprising, you can take public transit to Grand Central Station and take the train from there

Thanks for answering my previous questions! Going off of someone else's question about the NYC trip, is the sign up for the trip lottery based and will there be a fee for it (if there is, how much do these trips usually ask for)? Thanks again!
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:26
The sign up for popular trips like the NYC trip is lottery based. Generally, there is a nominal fee for our more popular trips, depending on how much it cost us to book it. The NYC trip will likely be $10-$20

Good morning,  I just wonder if there's still any vacancy in course PLSC S167 - International Human Rights & Politics? As the course description didn't mention any room limit. I wanna change my course to PSLC S 167
Meg Palladino

Hi - That course is closed to further enrollments.  If you want to request a course change, please fill out the change form or come to our office on Monday.  The form is online at https://apply.summer.yale.edu/register/2019Change
