There are many restaurants in the area where you can purchase lunch. If you desire to make your own lunch, you can buy groceries at Stop & Shop or Good Nature Market. Yale has an abundance of nice places to sit outside and eat!

Can I informally attend (audit or sit in on) classes that I have not signed up for?
Meg Palladino
9:35
We do not allow auditing.
Lea

Thanx! It said I have to purchase a 100$ Spinning pass. Will this pass give me access for all 5 weeks?
Meg Palladino
9:36
Probably?  You should check with the gym after you arrive- I don't want to give the wrong information.
Lee
9:36
Is there a 24/7 convenience store on campus?
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:36
Yes, Good Nature Market, very near to Morse and Stiles

Can I change the local number that I typed in the online registration form? I didn't know that I could use the Residential office number.
Meg Palladino
9:37
If you have a local phone number that you have already entered, that will be fine.  If you need to make a change, you can do it when you arrive.

Activities calendar includes 'IM basketball'. What does IM stand for?
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:37
intramural - it means playing with your friends in school for fun instead of in a competitive league (although sometimes you and your friends might be competitive!)
Alberto

Do we have access to Edward P. Evans Hall and the library of the school of management?
AvatarYale Summer Session

During the daytime you can have access with your Yale ID

Hi, I want to ask that what is the most suitable destination of shuttle from the jfk airport so that  we can get to the housing check in place as convenient as possible?
Meg Palladino
9:38
Zijun - If you can use a specific address, use 70 Tower Parkway, New Haven.    If you are taking a shuttle that can let you off at Phelps Gate, that is the closest on campus destination.

Can we go and visit NYC by ourselves at the weekend if ever we can't go to the trip?
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:38
Yes, certainly. If you are under 18 years old you'll need to be back by curfew if you don't have prior permission from a guardian.
Zijun
9:39
As a international student, I can only know the local phone number to fill the registeratio.

You can use the residential office number - 203.436.8877

How expenses is it to buy blanket and pillow sheets/ towels when we arrive? Will there be any store open on Sunday? BC it takes up so much space in the luggage... :)
Meg Palladino
9:39
We provide the blanket and pillow.  You just need sheets and towels.  The Yale bookstore is open on Sunday, and has those things for sale.
Alberto

If I am 17, can I leave campus within the allotted curfew?
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:41
Yes, within the allotted curfew. You must be back by curfew though!
Daisy

Thanks for your answer! I wonder if I could save my baggages at the Registrar when I'm looking for my dorm? It will be a little bit hard to me to walk around campus with 2 big luggages at the same time
AvatarYale Summer Session
9:41
We will have staff to assist you with your luggage and finding your dorm.
AMY

I'm living off-campus but if I buy a meal plan, can I eat with the residential students?

People typically take the metro north train line

Is there a train or another means of transport to go to NYC?
AvatarYale Summer Session
