"New York City is just a $14 train ticket and less than two hours away. Boston is just a bit farther going the other way. In no time at all I can be watching a Boston Red Sox game, eating in the North End, seeing a Broadway play or shopping in SoHo.”

Brian Wallach

Accessibility

Visitors to New Haven are often surprised to find out that Yale University is 75 miles from New York City and 120 Miles from Boston. Therefore weekend or even day trips are not only possible, but easy. For students who live farther away or want to take a weekend trip, Tweed Airport is less than 10-minutes from campus and there are 4 other airports within a couple hours and an Amtrak Acela high-speed train station 5 minutes from campus.

And while it is easy to get to other cities, it is also simple to get around town. New Haven is a walking city with dining, theater, shopping and pretty much all a student needs within a ten-minute walk from campus.
